I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

any help would be great...

engine. drivetrain. engine management & trouble codes talk.

only if you chip your ecu and plan on tuning it for the more air going into the engine. You probably already lost horsepower with the intake if you ecu is not currently chipped.
