UGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Ok now thats out of the way, I want my car back. Just talked to K&N and they asked if they could keep it until Tuesday because they started R&D on it today. I dropped it off Monday night and I guess they had some priority project that had to be done first so I must wait.
URRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!

Why didn't you just install the K&N filter yourself?

They are using my car for research and development of a new K&N intake system, then when they are finished I get one for free. And thanks for the vote of confidence in thinking I am a complete noob and can't install my own air filter.

Well rrobello look at it this way, we'll all have you to thank when they release their intake system. I'm assuming it's going to be one of the "Typhoon" ones.

Sweet!

Yup, it officially started it's trip, It normally takes 7-10 days to get here once it's on the train. That puts it being here the middle of next week. The ETA is 14 Jan, but my money is on Wednesday

That makes 66 the TMS "official" "I Feel Your Pain" representative for folks waiting for their new 05.

Please post some pic's of the new intake, im very interested in their product. Hopefully when you get your car back it will be installed, or worst case you'll get the first one out when they make it. Good luck and pic's please!
