[QUOTE="ElrodKTPQ_89, post: 1553996, member: 18710"] Adding this pic to show my current filter location. This worked out pretty good considering it was thrown together with spare parts, and there were no fitment issues when I put the new fender liners in. [ATTACH type="full"]38867[/ATTACH] I was loaned this momentary switch from a neighbor so I could test my 2-step out. Everything works as it should and the switch setup can be tucked away nicely under the ash tray door for stealth purposes. [ATTACH type="full"]38869[/ATTACH] I mentioned that this switch was temporary, it works great but after finding some YouTube videos I purchased a different type of switch and will try my hand at fabbing a bracket for a clutch fork operated 2-step activation. I got this coming from Amazon for $20. [ATTACH type="full"]38868[/ATTACH] After confirming everything functioned correctly in the shop, I went down the road to try it out at like 1800rpm or something and as soon as I took off heard a pop followed by an exhaust leak. Panicked for a millisecond then remembered I had been having trouble keeping the EGR cap on my headers tight. The cheap aluminum cap was expanding once it got hot and blew off. I eased the car back into the shop and to my surprise found the cap still under the hood. [ATTACH type="full"]38870[/ATTACH] So with a car show coming up in a couple days I was set on attending and knowing the aluminum cap wasn’t gonna stay on I did what any of us would do and snagged a cap from the wrecking yard and stacked 5c worth of pennies under it to seal it off. [ATTACH type="full"]38871[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]38872[/ATTACH] Spent Friday night cleaning and vacuuming etc to get this pig looking more presentable. [ATTACH type="full"]38873[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]38874[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]38875[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
