PM?
Is this some secret or something?

I gather from your pics that you remove the intake manifold, and blast the valves from the intake side?
Do you guys have insurance? Are you certified mechanics?
What kind of warranty do you offer?

You shouldn't have any problems. Just make sure the plug is all the way in the socket. It might be tight (lol), but it will fit.

Exactly, especially those who still have their stock air box.


Great Job LivnLife31 and company. Advice, as you complete one job after the other keep posting pics of your work. I would also recommend to post the mileage that was on the car to give people an idea of what going on in their cars at that mileage.

$400 for valves cleaning is a steal, the dealership is going to charge you about 1k to do that.
