Thanks! I'm happy. No real engine mods. K&N short ram...and obviously the intercooler with dry spray. The exhaust is just for looks (even though I'm not happy about the cheap route, I do like the way it looks and I'm gonna try recreate it with a real exhaust).

Thanks on the side skirts too. Unfortunately, the Hawaiian roads have destroyed the whole kit and there's no way it'd ever be worth anything resale. I think I'm gonna try repair it myself when I get back to the mainland. Any idea what kit it is?

P.S. I seriously despise this letter verification. Listening and looking at the picture, I still get it wrong. Third times a charm!
