Dr.Steve:
Have you eyeball'd the Frackmobile to start the PLX project? Also, when do you think the Autopower + harnesses are going in.

Yes, I have eyeballed it. I noticed you have an intake air temp sensor (SM-AIT) and I am wondering if you would like to get another so you can measure the difference before and after the intercooler. Just a thought. No ETA on the bar and harness installation. I will require you to drive the MINI for at least a week before you bring it back for that. I noticed that the DVD screen is not retracting and I can't remember if that's an option or not. I didn't want to glue the bezel back on so I'm sure it was getting pulled off every time the screen extended. I can glue it if you want to.

Noise

Steve, great find. No more noise. It seems that if my mini goes to the dealer, I should just have them return it to you so you can find what they forgot to do. Again thanks. Ken

Dr.Steve: You have another PLX shipment headed your way for another SM-AIT, so that'll make one input & one output to monitor my DFIC activity. Should make for some interesting data-logging. Bonus to the PLX is I'm going to be monitoring: pre-DFIC, post-DFIC & exhaust temp on one gauge & letting the other PLX act as a/f stand-alone. Sweetness.

Oh, thanks for doing the separate circuit for the Venom NO2 & having that up-&-running. Do I need to get you a new purge button? I think I have a discreet one at home somewhere.

What, you don't like the big silver one? It is ugly and requires a really big hole. I have my drill ready, how about right in the center of the glovebox door.

I'm glad we fixed it before the bumper fell off. It's sort of sad to have to keep replacing the parts they forget to put back on. Checkers has the same problem; I replaced some missing brackets and it came back from repair with one of them missing again. Frustrating!

I think this is how ChrisW & Jen drive their automatic justacooper. Heck, maybe even Ken too. Luv ya guys!



And for the times where Dr.Steve is trying to explain the how the exhaust/intake/supercharger/turbo/etc. sound will affect their Mini to potential clients, I think he should start doing this....

I have paddles with an Alta exhaust. Sounds much different when I do it. Ken

Are you using a PC with Internet Explorer 7? If yes, go to the "Tools" tab and choose "Internet Options". Choose the Advanced tab and scroll down to "Multimedia" and make sure "Show Pictures" is checked.

In the "Tools" tab click on "Security" and see what the "Internet" zone level is set at. Click on "Default level" and see what happens.
