OK just took it for the first test run! I noticed it definately had some more balls off the start, but its rush hour right now so I didn't get to play too much. The banjo blot I guess was at an angle and they adjusted that. And get this, its a good thing that we had the manifold replaced! It turns out that when they took the old one off they found masking tape inside! It appears that it was put on their for the powdercoat and never removed, I guess you couldn't really see it unless you tilted it to an almost level with your eyes view. So I am almost glad that I have had the problems I had. I guess Alpine needs to work on their QC. Anyway see ya'll later I'm going back out driving!
