I really regret telling amirsafdari to install it himself.... the guilt. haha I was originally thinking that he could save money by doing the job himself, but he lost a day of work...and spent an additional 11 hrs trying to install it. It would have been cheaper in this case to get it professionally installed. lol

11 hours, it only takes 1.5 hrs to remove the radio to access the CAI install from behind the radio. the Throttle body to the front bumper area is easily accessible from behind the radio and should take no more than an extra hour!!!!

Getting ready to works on Rays '54 Vincent Black Shadow, could use another hand, maybe Amir is free. Hmmm. It's OK man. I couldn't fix squat, or cut a straight board until I did it a few times. My first tune-up became a tow job. And I've made a few piles of expensive firewood. Good luck, I'll bet ya learned alot.

Hey Amir,

I need some help re-wiring my Home Theater.
Could you stop by with one of those “turning thingy with the ticking noise” tools and give me a hand ???

Not everybody can see the bright side. Even if you charge only $30 - $40 per hour just think of all the money you can make on each 11 hour install! :p

Btw, after two hours my back would be killing me.

Congrats in order though cause you did it yourself and with your buddy with his daddiers busted ticking thingee!

damn thats a LOT OF grammar/spelling mistakes!!!

I remember though, I was sooo tired when i was posting that..


I am the kind that makes fun of people that either purposely, or not purposely, make posts with spelling mistakes cause they say they are drunk/tired/high...so its weird reading myself type that nonesense.
