I think the AEM intake needs a hood scoop?

Maybe...not sure what would be the setup for the R60 and R61.

At the moment, I'm chasing rear suspension clunking and sort of narrowed down to the sway bar links. this task will be first thing tomorrow morning. I know it will be freezing, but it's either now or never

There is also some unrest in the front plus alignment issue that needs to be addressed.

Finally, in the times I drove it, I seem to get post cat o2 sensor code. I need to figure out if the car was tuned or being prepped for tuning!

rear suspension update:

I had time on Saturday to diagnose the issue. Long story short, when the rear lower control arm broke, the sway bar bushing got squished and cause the sway bar bushing stopper to get close the frame. so every time I hit a bump or stone, it will clunk. The problem now is when I was removing the bushing bracket bolt, it SNAPPED....

That second O2 is there to tell you if your CAT is working or not... Tuning could affect performance of it. Will be interesting to find out what the issue is there. Hope you have some bolt left and can get to it for extraction.

Extraction is not an option since space is very limited. The welded nuts on the other side were cut for the same reason, i assume.

My friend, hotairgypsy, suggested I send the ECU file to mariokart to see of it were tuned or not. I know the car is prepped for stage 1 or 2 at least. Worst case scenario I install a catted DP.
