i guess the true test will be monday and tuesday its suppose to only be a high of 28 degrees.. and lows in the teens so if your car starts up then you should have any worries..

i am worried if i should do my TBypass and make it go back to normal..

^^ I was told by JTso and some of the canadian members that the TB bypass is good in pretty cold conditions.

I am not concerned on weight, my car is slow, I know it is lol, I like my luxury and my looks, but I need a better battery

What YT model is it? maybe costco has one

True.

Only saving grace was as i was leaving, Matt Teske (show organizer) walked up to my window and introduced himself to me. He then said he wished i would have been in a better spot at the show, and not parked behind a giant yellow pillar in a corner.

depends on what you consider modification.. haha you have to remove the battery tray to make it fit.. the mounting bracket works fine though.. just make sure to make it tight since you wont have a tray to hold it in.. you can see my engine bay on the pics in my profile so you can get the idea

oh and i get 750 CCA at 0 degrees =)

There was a Integra with a ITR front end, and a extremely "show" modded Integra that has green wood grain paint, Lambo doors, Screens..etc etc

OEM Clean isnt cool anymore.

I feel that if you have "mods" that were the cool shit in 1992, you should have your testies removed to spare the rest of the community any future neon lit cars with lambo doors.

So did any body have anyone at work call in "gay" today?

Or better yet did anyone have someone call in not knowing that today is national "call in gay" day??

One guy i worked with called in today. He had no clue what today had been deemed. Oh the jokes have already started, as well as the fake news reports with his picture pasted onto gay rally pics.

Cant wait till he comes back tomorrow.

I guess its supposed to show America that everyone relies on Gays, and that when they all call in sick/gay today that it would open everyones eyes to the whole Prop 8 ordeal.

Just google "call in gay day" LOTS of media coverage about it.
