^Thanks again. Will do that then. The allure of the extra power and MPG was definitely a factor but if I can get out of the repair for a couple of hundred bucks... it's a no brainer to keep the system. The child in me wanted to come out and play. Plus the wife gave her support sooooooo.... Makes it hard to thing responsibly.

Can't join the group though as I don't use Facebook. The wife and I got off about 6 years ago. And I think they still have a "real name" policy in place so can't create a dummy account.
