The new goodies I ordered just arrived this week from Shine... New Carbon 1 piece 99 spec front lip, Carbon low profile wing and undertray.



Had them set up the way a mans kitchen table should look like... full of car parts.



But that did not last too long and my girl made me take that stuff to the garage... so now they lay with all the other parts that wait to get put on! hopefully they don't sit there forever, but I foresee them laying in this carbon purgatory for a while

finally happy I have been driving the car around. been going to the thursday night meet and breaking her in before the tune! sucks I can't boost it or push it hard... some 350z pulled up on my the other night and tried to run but I was not going to risk the motor for a 350z...


but certainly not looking forward to the gas bills now that the car is up and rolling.

So I am getting ready to get tuned in two weeks. I still have a few minor things to get on the car but wanted to get peoples thoughts or warning on what to check or double check or triple check before going to tune.


Things to do is 

Replace fuel filter

Install undercut pulley

Install 3bar map senor

Fix oil leak under the car


Things I have but not sure if I should install

Meth kit: going to try to get this in before tune

Oil catch can: not sure if I need this to tune?


any insight will be helpful. seen plenty of people go tune and not be able to tune because of issues. and I do not want that to be me.
