Default ok i've got a mod problem

ok heres the problem, i hhave ran out of things to do basicly. i have full intake and exhaust except for the manifold but i can't do that right now because the shop down the road is out of stock BTW im on vacation right now in NC and im right down the road from Bristol, which is why i want it now so i can have it at bristol befor i go back to FL. does anyone know anything i can do without ripping the engine apart to instal it?

Ran out of things to do? Never. There's ALWAYS more to do.

haha so order it, when your buddy gets them in get one from him cheaper then send it back to summit saying you decided not to do it so it ends up costing the same in the end minus shipping and you have one now
how would they know you've got like 90 days to return something if not installed
haha screw the system

get some gears, might need someone to do the install but for what you get out of it it's really cheap, and you wont blow your motor cause of them.
