Installed my new N/A serpentine belt diagram (with generic part number) that I got from Andrew here in the forum. All went pretty well with a little bunching up on the lower left corner (my fault). This minor error was easily corrected with a razor trim on the corner and slightly along the bottom. Thats what I get for hurrying and sliding it after some was already glued. Anyway, its hidden pretty good by the cooling line that sits above it. Great mod, now I hope I never have to use the information on the side of the road!

Well, it was on Wednesday, but I finally got my '6 on dyno after the mods. I'm a happy puppy to say the least.

A wax job on your undercarriage? Too much info here.

The sensor is in the MAF housing.
You use the 68mm sensor.

Took off my NW CAI, I considered putting on the catch can but it seems like a lot of agro, just getting lazy I guess.

Not putting it on shortens the 'to do' list a little.

I might get rid of the CAI, I do not like the look, going back to the OEM look for a while at least. I'll see how I feel later. Heck, I might even get rid of the catch can.

If you end up wanting to sell it I may be interested depending on funds at the time.

Each to their own I guess. One thing I loved after installing the CAI was that you could definitely hear the supercharger whine. I'd rather sell off my children before parting with the CAI.

Getting rid of the kids gets rid of a lot of whining as well. LOL

An easy way to get rid of the kids is just drop them off at the pool.
