@75,000 it looks like that was the original! Hopefully now I average better than 20mpg!

Right in front of rear right jack point >>>

Remove a few bolts holding the plastic shield over the gas tank, loosen the clamp on the filter, push button on leading edge of each plug on the ends, put down paper towels, put on rubber gloves, pull both ends, wait for small amount of fuel to drizzle out, slide out filter, slide in new, push plugs back on, and put everything back together. Was about a 10 minute job, very easy.

Haha yeah right!!!

I stay outta boost long enough for the engine to warm up... Not sure how to keep my foot off the gas after that. Boost is soooooo much fun and with that stage 3 you have, I highly doubt staying out of boost is even possible!

...Well if a Corvette or M3 wanted to play...

I had to oblige more often than not ;-)

But if I was behaving...set the cruise control...and just chug along like the rest of the Sheeple...Baaaahhh =)
