What have you done to your P5 today?

installed my auto tranny cooler today, piece of cake! sp i drive off to get gas, leave the station and the car dies! the 30 amp fuse for the ECU blew? i thought it my be the fuel pump....the ECU??
 
Took my girlfriend and Ol' Blue for an impromptu run through "The Loop" in the N. GA mountains. Hell of a fun time when I wasn't stuck behind people doing 15 mph. Surprised a bunch of ricers in mad turblowed 240s when I kept up w/ them for the length of Hwy 180. "OMG What's done to that thing!?" "It's stock... ish" "WTF!?" "well, for starters I don't have $15 tires...." At least 1 of the ijits nearly wiped out in a corner, I swear the retard was trying to drift the s***. I saw (and smelled) lingering tire smoke coming up on them and decided to lay back on 1 of the straights to let them have their fun. Really didn't want to get tangled up in it if 1 of them decided he wanted to go off roading...

Hwy 180's unique in that it's more car friendly than bike friendly. A lot of bikes get over to let 'spiritedly driven' cars by. It's REALLY tight, like 2nd gear tight for most of it, really narrow 2 lane black top. Think more autocross than road course.


The Loop
 
Ordered some misc gaskets, bolts, nuts etc for the upcoming header install. Now to buy a can of PB Blaster.
 
Woot...head for lunch.

I hope to have mine in the car by the end of the week

It still needs drilled out and the angle changed a little bit on the flange
 
I won't be installing till I get my rear motormount replace, since, by removing the stock cat, i also remove a brace that is keeping hte motor from bouncing out of the engine bay

Hopefully, if it isn't too cold tomorrow (might get into the 40's-50's) I will drop the car off and ride my bike into work from the garage and have em swap mounts and find out if my bushings or endlinks are going bad.

Once the new mount is in, i will work on finishing the header.

If you havn't noticed, i'm not in a huge rush
