lol...NOS will make a lot of things better ;)

also as far as the problem i was having that you tried to scan at that meet dave, i've been doing a lot of reading, i think it might be the DPFE sensor....the scanner should have picked up a code for that though, but i just refuse to believe its a misfire after everything i've been through....any thoughts on this man? do you think the dpfe could cause the problem i was having?

Give this a try.....

Take the vacuum line off the top of the EGR valve, and stick a bolt in the end of it, to prevent a vacuum leak. Take the car for a drive, and see if the problem you are having goes away. It may very well throw an engine light, but don't worry about it. If the problem disappears, you have a DPFE problem. If the problem persists, you have something else wrong.

Also...it is entirely possible that you do have a DPFE problem....but the scanner will not pick up a code, due to the fact that the vehicle's system did not detect a problem. What happens is that the DPFE tells the EGR valve to open a little early, causing the studder, however, the DPFE is still working, therefore, not causing an engine light or a code.

Rasta:

I've been told the wires would cost you $70. It turns out the HID bulb was not upside down, but rather a different number than the other bulb, thus causing a slight bit of green. I'm currently waiting on a new bulb. My porblem should be remedied shortly. Man, I hate being a perfectionist.

:rolleyes:
