LED Light bar came in today, installed it after I got off work.

It far surpassed my expectations, and makes my HID's look super dim.

I remember those days (and I've only got a 5.2)... I'm sooo glad that I hovering around 15mpg now.
I don't think I can expect much better at this point.

looked at it... lol maybe in about a week and 1/2 I will get around to pulling the transmission out of it and finding out WTF happened with the clutch. Either a bolt came off or a spring broke or something...

I replaced my clogged catalytic converter with a magnaflow today. Haven't driven it yet, but moving it in the drive way seemed better! Turns out all my exhaust pipes were pretty well stuck together, and my muffler had a crack in it the entire length of the muffler. I ended up cutting the rest of my exhaust system out and taking it out. Got no cat-back now, will need to get one soon.

Unsuccessfully replaced my iac valve. I put the new one in and the idle was really high so I took it out and the pintle was fully extended. I take it it's junk and I need a new one?
