Re: wow, another thing broke

Re: VRES?
i have an idea that might work... have a cutout with that same butterfly system. It would have to be alittle more airtight to keep some back pressure, but it would give better gains once it opened up at say... 3500-4K? plus, if a cop is following, or just is nearby, just keep the revs down and he'll...

Re: wow, another thing broke
Ok, i pulled the left side of my car up onto the curb, and crawled under. All 4 bolts holding the mount to the body are still there and solid. The rubber fitting that connects the shifter to the mount is what broke. What do you figure for a whole new mount? $50?
