Waiting for a cool(ish) night to do it. I get off work at 830 at night, and it is still currently 100ish degrees when I get off. It will be either this weekend or next probably.

Did you notice any AFR issues? My exhaust note would change for a few seconds at a time sometimes too. I am now attributing this to random acts of richness during idle and cruising that I just wasnt noticing on my wideband. I dont stare at the thing while I drive...lol
put the ported blower on today, but for some reason it threw a TPS cod.e p0122, and jump to super rich as soon as i give it any gas at all. hmmm
Just put this on....no biggie..
Awwww look at the cute little blower.....
Love it, it sounds so awesome, AFRs are 11.7 to 12.0 WOT in all gears.
Evofire- I didn't have any aft issues on my car, I had an electrical draw and I'd get a dead battery in about 8hrs.

Awesome. Good to hear. I am thinking that i had several small issues that presented as one. Since everything is reassembled after the blower swap, things seem to be a lot better. I am getting better AFR, and the car just seems to be happeier all around. I check all the grounds and all the sensors i could this weekend i taped a few things to pretty them up, and then replaced the TPS which I think might have been on its way out for a few weeks now.
Lookin good under the hood Chris!
It's good to see it finally back in service after its previous home. I do miss that unmistakable scream the Stiegemeier makes.
