went to SF today, removed the vent and install vortex by AK. Tried to install HID fog light but there are technical problem so we can only install it next time when problem is solved.

had a can of beer while having dinner there. dunno if it's the effect of vortex+vent removal or effect of beer, the car feels a lot lighter on my way back home. if it's not the beer then my ride gained a lot of bhp tonite! will try it better tomorrow when I wake up...
Glad that you feel a difference on the Vortex / vent removal. Too bad mine wasn't done yet while I was there. Hopefully all the problem is solved by today.

Next time you better not drink and drive. We still want to see you at the next meet.
