I know you tested the CRX and found no change, but I'm wondering if they would have an effect on this particular vehicle.
Also, whatever became of the hood ramp ?
Cd,I will run a 'stock' configuration,as that's where my mpg numbers will be coming from.No variables that way.See what that nets me.
Then,I'll start messing around.
As to the hood blister,we were having some significant tornadic weather weeks ago and a lot of chances for big hail.All my plex parts have already been destroyed by tennis ball size hail and will have to be re-fabricated ( ouch!),so I pulled the blister to protect it until I test some more.
Without it,the hood literally caves in about a foot in front of the cowl.I should ask BamZipPow if he's ever experienced that on his.Wild!
