Hi Cam,

As you know by now, as I explained in yesterdays email, my car is back at Lingenfelter's to take care of a few small, but time consuming PITA problems.  Nothing major, mostly their application of the Header-Exhaust combination that I ordered, which is being taken care of now. I'll keep in touch as the fix progresses...;42

I wish that the "enjoying" part were true jo, but that's not the case. My car had to be returned to Lingenfelter's to correct a Header-Exhaust system foul-up that they inadvertantly created. There were fitment problems between the two systems, and they are correcting the situation now by replacing the Header system with the correct brand that I ordered in the first place, that will be a correct match with the Corsa exhaust system that I have.  As I said to Cam, nothing serious, but a little labor intensive, and on the PITA level.  Should have my car back approx. on the 18th of this month...;42

Hey Cam, and gang,

The new Kooks Headers are at the Jet-Hot coating facility in the state of Mississippi.  The "Sterling" coating process will be complete in (5) days.  The Headers will then be sent to Lingenfelter's for installation on my car.  They will have to re-tune, and then dyno again for the final numbers, the car should pick up a few horses over and above the last dyno.  I'll post the new sheet when they send it to me.



Cheers...;42

Hey Cam,
We are getting very close, yesterday they finished puting the new Kooks Headers on, and the correct center section of the Corsa exhaust system. It took (4) days to get the Headers from the dealer to the Jet-Hot coating facility, (3) days to get the coating done, and overnight delivery to Lingenfelters for the installation.  The new Performance Gauge, and the new 45 degree angled plug wires were installed today, also had the break-in oil changed out.  The car was test driven and it didn't throw any codes.  It's #3 now, for the Dyno and tuning, which should happen tomorrow or Saturday. The transport company is all set to bring the beast back to me.  It should be on it's way back to me by Tuesday or Wednesday, and that's only a 4 to 5 hour drive...;35  More soon...;42

This is kind of weird, but only today I learned that one of the LPE tech's made a 50 second video of my car, even before I received it the first time, with a shop camera that had a  video feature, to mainly record the sound of the header-exhaust combo.  It was done at night..;eek and the quality leaves a lot to be desired, but they were only interested in the sound quality.  I apologize for the lack of sharpness, and poor quality, but I thought you might like to "hear" his work. Turn your volume up.

I further found out that the video was made by the tech at the Header and Exhaust shop, rather then at the Lingenfelter location.
Here's a photo of their crack shop camera-man, during his off-time...;ay
