Reinstalling charge motion plates

I am going to reinstall the charge motion plates and was wondering if there are any special tricks or secrets to doing this? Thanks

You've seen the Tacobill write-up... right?

Reinstalling is alittle different than taking them off. I guess my main concern is making sure that the motor isn't out of calibration and that the actuators work properly.

Gotcha. So you're putting the normal plates back on, not the delete plates I assume?

Just trying to learn a little about this since I'm planning the CMDP mod. (free bump

Just like putting the delete plates in. Make sure you have everything connected, and that you have a tune with the plates in, or that you're going back to stock. I did it a while ago, no problems.

Just re-tune and you are set. I have done it before and actually used a set from another car. there is no calibration to it other than the tune to tell them when to open etc.
