Love mine. Easy installation. Could use another inch of length.

There's an easy joke in here somewhere, I just know it.

I worry that I'd be frustrated with it still not quite being tall enough. Whenever I do the shoulders-back steering wheel test it's 6 inches between my wrist and the wheel.

Eventually got better but still looked and acted more like the fat goth kid who's parents would not let him dress the way he wanted so had to settle for some white paint on their face. The music and songs were OK but there was zero show or even stage presence. I was disappointed becuase it was a shadow of the former shows I had seen.

Rob Zombie on the otherhand put on a show like I have never seen from him. Was like an 18 year old running around.

This also went down a few feet away from me (I am one of the blurry bodies in the rear left)

When I do the shoulders-back steering wheel test the seat is almost all the way forward and i still can't quite push in the clutch all the way

I’m stranded in a parking lot near work. A friend is on the way but I’m probably going to have to AAA tow my car to the dealer.

Engine is misfiring again and flashing CEL. Same issue from October and earlier last year after the tune I got.

I don’t know what’s happening and I’m kind of scared. Waiting for a local FRS friend to come by but most likely nothing we can do at this point other than call and wait for the tow.

Time to break out the old OBDII scanner.

Same issue as last time so probably cylinder misfire. No other codes that time.

Shop blamed the header cat being blown, tuned car back to stock and put stock header back on. Left flex fuel kit on but not plugged in (only fuel lines are still running through it).

Car had been mostly smooth since. Occasional weird idle rpm drops. Thought that’s was normal. Had a shop check for leaks and stuff but no issues.

Some shops always want to go back to stock... Anyway could be a bad spark plug, coil pack, injector.. would be nice if you had the code that tells you which cyclinder. I suppose there aren't too many vacuum hoses in these? I never looked that close on the FA20.
