Going into the shop tomorrow, first oil change at 1100. While there i'm going to have them go over all the hoses/connections to check for leaks and what not. After I get it home I'll take out the HC Trap. I think i have a pretty good baseline on the gas milage so far and hopefully this will give me a bump.

Had the oil changed today and everything looked good, no leaks, no
loose fittings. Once I got her home I took the HC trap out. OMG! Why
did Ford put that thing in there? I immediately got 30 mpg city, at
LEAST 25rwhp increase, can't even tell you how much more torque it
has now, my Shaker stopped skipping, the fuel filling problems
magically stopped, the antenna shrunk 20 inches and 4 different super models
asked if they could go for a ride! All from a little HC trap. Who woulda thunk
it.

Dude,
Your car is awesome looking. I like the silver stripes on the Sonic Blue better than the white.
I've been leaning toward white with blue stripes but your combo has muddied the waters. Unfortunately I'm not in the market for an 05 so I guess I will not be getting a Sonic Blue.
Really curious what "vista blue" will look like

I decided to go with the Silver stripes to be different. I figured everyone would be going white and with the car such a dark blue the silver accents it well. As a bonus he was able to match the silver of the dash almost perfectly.
