Re: Any 5th gen free mods?

Except for the #5 and #20 fuse-pull for the SS, to reset the fuel map if you haven't done so already.

If you didn't know about this one...cheap/regular gas used when the dealer fills up the car before delivery causes the car to adjust the fuel map. The programming in the ECM is only uni-directional. Once the fuel map has been adjusted for cheap gas, it can't reset if the octane goes back up. I burned through the first tank of 'dealer gas', filled up with premium, and then reset the ECM about 50 miles later. Nice difference!

Not any that I know of. Seems that did all of the hard work for us. Or fun work.

That, my friends, is good engineering.

If you disconnect the Wiring Harness from the Injectors on each side, you can carefully tuck the Harness behind each Injector. Then reconnect each clip & the wiring's well hidden.

After you're done, 1 more ugly thing disappears out from plain view on the top of your engine.

A K&N filter is the only the only mod I have at this point. I'm saving for exhaust.

Re: Any 5th gen free mods?

mucker, where did you get that air scoop at? does it help feed air to the intake better? i disconnected my washer fluid hoses anyways because of my hood, so i may take the whole washer fluid bottle out.
