Look Ray, proper H4s, from the MoBrighta group buy. The weather is shite here in the Seattle area today, so I figured it would be good day to do this.

Low Beams

Nope. I do have a spare relay sitting in my block, but I am loathe to cut up my original wiring. I might do it eventually, I know the advantages, but I haven't had an issue yet.

The Susquehanna motorsports kit is plug and play. Just attach the battery lead and plug one of the old headlamp plugs into it as a trigger. No cutting.

Hey chamonix72

I'm running same setup and into the tuning phase now. Would u be willing to send me your tune. I would like to compare afr tables and such.

Anyway looks great.

I wish I could, but it's on my mechanic's computer. :/

Hi awesome build man, want to build something similar in future. Do you have some hp numbers on that build? Or fuel consumption? It will be nice to see difference between stock engine, carb'd and itb setup. Thank you. Or if you say that differnce between stock and itb is hell big it's enough .

[Chamonix72]

Thanks! No HP numbers yet. Dyno time is still being planned. If I had to guess I would say 125-130 at the wheels.

MPG is a guess since my speedometer reads a bit fast. But on the highway, my estimates are high 20s, if not 30-ish. Around town, maybe low-mid 20s.

So, me, my wife and the 2002 have relocated to TX. Prior to leaving, Midnight Motorsport built a new custom 2.5” exhaust with an Ireland long tube header. The old exhaust hung WAY too low and would have gotten hung up on the transporter.

Just to confirm we are in TX now.

And you set the clock back a few years!
