    Greetings from Rock Island, IL

    Welcome! Spent a few years living in the Quad Cities (Iowa side) myself and used to take advantage of the later closing time in IL. Is the Thirsty Beaver still there? :Pshyco:

    Want a BB tune but live in Hawaii!!! So handheld then???

    You might want to look into the EFI Live Autocal from Black Bear. Data logging and emailed custom tunes. Hope to be doing this myself once I can afford it, seeing as how they don't usually get to within a 3 hour drive of my location.

    Headlights

    I ran a 35w 5000k setup in black housing reflectors (like-OEM) on my 03 for about 2 months. They were VERY bright, but I found that while there was a lot of your field of view illuminated, the light quality was scattered and not very useful. Depth perception seemed to be an issue with the...
