LOL! Yeah, saw your other post on that. Would like to see the end results.

Just do it! Only three 10mm screws in the front, & 1 in the back. I put the screws back in in the back, so as to not lose the retaining clip. In retrospect, I suppose I could've just removed that too...

Did you RTFM???

Adds weight, & holds in heat. Had to go. Comparing the LS series rat blocks, or even the big blocks, to a motor less than a 3rd the size is like comparing apples to bananas. If only an LS1 would fit in this lil car...

The CVT has it perks, but I wish I had the 6 speed manual. I can kill the salesman that lied to me...

So how well did that new MAS work with your HPS intake? Any issues?

I agree, very good site to get parts & ideas from. I got my short ram intake from them also. Found the cross-drilled & slotted rotors on there, but found the same parts cheaper elsewhere. If you sign up for there spam, they send out promo code all the time. Only problem is that they have lots of...

It's all good! ;)

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, but I'd rebuild the engine before doing a swap. The config is a little different than the 2ZR-FE motor. From what I can see, MWR has it prebuilt already for about the same price...

Haven't had that problem, but you can adjust the sensitivity of the mic in the car. I don't remember exactly what it's called on the screen, but I'll check it shortly as I'm about to hit the road. I'll update you later.

Is that what they were supposed to be? Air dams? I took them off the front & the back as well, cuz they annoyed me with the way they stuck out. Anyone know if they actually anything functional?

I too would love to see your setup if you're willing to share. :)

I concur. I've had the same results, although no CEL.

I've noticed that my '15 S Plus runs better on Chevron fuel, & I only use the the 87 octane grade. Since most of the Chevrons in my area have become Shells, I've had to switch. It just doesn't run as smoothly unless I put in Chevron fuel treatment every several fill ups.

I'm next door in AZ. Did you get this worked out yet?

For those that want to see how it looks... I eventually removed that silly engine cover though...

The sound is actually coming from the motor itself, rather than the exhaust. As for the heat shield, I just bought a slightly larger hose clamp. Made the filter & shield easier to install & remove.

I put the same short ram intake on my S about a year ago. The sound from the engine is awesome. As for the low end torque, it never had any to begin with. My power curve is by far smoother now, kicking in around 2k instead of 4k RPM.

There's a button or something behind the glove box as I recall from the owner's manual... :p ...But I'll check out the vid. ;)

So what exactly did you do to the shifter boot to make it "super cool" as you say?
