they detect when the engine is detonating and the computer will then pull timing when it happens... saving the motor.

I'm sure there is more complicated stuff happening but that's the basics. An engine with piston slap can confuse the sensors that the engine is detonating when it's not, fixing problems that don't exist which of course cause altogether different problems....

I couldn't view the pics, but from the description it sounds like the charge motion plates are not removable.
I would hope that the person re-ordering the manifold would specify what year it's for.

Where's Leo?

Worst case, wifey found out about the new wheels and tires, thus he's unable to get to the computer.

Worst case? You kidding me, this is the most the rest of us has had to say since 'ol Leo bought the dang blower. Then almost sold it. Then bought wheels/tires. LOL

I told Leo a few days ago that when we don't see him logged on for over a day, we know exactly what happened.

I feel like calling Leo and see what's going on. But this 'creative imagination' is too entertaining, so I won't call him just yet.

Before anyone's panties get all knotted up. Yeah I know if it's done right it's safe. I've just never seen a turbo or blower do this to a car. No matter how badly you install them.....

yeah, I was actually going to PM you. Did you want to meet somewhere? I'm meeting the group at the Flea market in Tampa at 7:30. We're grouping there and then going to the show as a group early to get parking on asphalt and not grass.
