Ive got a couple for ya,

How were you able to take your AFM (air flow meter) off? I did not know you could bypass the system.

Also, how did you do all this with your injury?! It must have taken awhile or some help.

Good effort, I congratulate you.

Thanks for your kind words.

The MTX8 works off the TPS and a MAP sensor (built into the ECU) so the AFM isent needed

So far ive done most of the mods myself with help for anything heavy (like the battery relocation). Im lucky i have several good friends that are willing to help me that are into rotors as much as me.

it takes me forever compared to do stuff than it used to. I used to work as a mechanic so i find it very frustrating to take so long doing things, but at least i can still do them. I have a brace i wear on my arm/wrist too
