The KB instructions say to remove fuse 21 for the car. On my hellcat 21 is a spare. Fuse 26 is the fuel pump. Unfortunately it is a 30AMP low profile mini fuse. I searched for four hours and at multiple shops for a 40amp low profile mini fuse. No one carries one. KB doesn't supply one and HHP recommended Napa. Napa didn't have shit... This is me modifying the fuse that KB sent me to use the low profile slot, fuse 26.
That is called an ATM style mini fuse (not the one you modified, but the one the slot is intended for). They are available up to 35 amps.

You should look into ATM style mini circuit breakers... also limited to 35 amps, but resettable.

Yesterday and Today I installed a reverse indicator light just like the ones they had back in the day. We must pay homage to 1970. (Don't worry, that glove box door isn't the original one to my car. I would never cut the original one up. Bought a used one from Ebay).

Took it for an oil change, it didn't happen. Thanks to reading on here I was aware they should have ordered an SRT filter, I thought best to check and they hadn't ordered one and were going to use a standard Challenger one from their stock.

They're usually pretty good but the mechanic booked it rather than the lady who normally does parts and bookings and thinking about it he didn't take the VIN. She took all the details and its re-booked.

Its worked out OK though as I've had some unexpected jobs so mileage is lower than I wanted and will be better with the delay.

I was stressing about it this morning, just didn't seem right for some reason and was quite pleased they couldn't do it. Its wet and roads are slippery and I had images of someone taking it for a spin and having an accident even though I had black key and enabled valet mode. I once took a GTR to a Nissan main dealer and the mechanic hit a van pulling it out of the workshop causing £20K worst of damage which took 3 months to satisfactorily repair, it was a nightmare I don't want again.

Dude next door brought home an $80,000 Rousch mustang. Not impressed. Candy apple red with a black stripe down `the middle.,, stupid looking. Paint job not so good, 740 HP ok weight is light. OK. Inner coolers not so impressed. CAI impressed. But, comes with a very large filter, but it has this pexi glass box around it. Which in my book, small mostly pictures of naked ex fian says, Cuts the air off. Looks good but funk stable not so good. No air. I took my K & N box off and the hood plate on the hood. Maximum air intake. Got to be careful of rain. Reinstall the hood plate. 1 screw and 2 minutes.

I finally got it out of my system. The lack of some type of emblem on the hood was driving me crazy. It was as if the styling dept ran out of time and left the hood alone. Too much real estate on that hood to leave it empty. So....I bought "Supercharged" emblems and put them on last night.

Looks good @B5Cat16. More importantly is that an original A12 RR behind it?

I have some, I never put them on because I could never convince myself that I liked exactly where I was going to put them on the hood.

You seemed to have done well. (y)

I've seen some that were done horribly... :eek:

Thank you. I felt that putting further back looked "correct". I love the way they look.

Beautiful! I'm one that agrees that emblem looks good there.

Nicely done! Looks like it belongs there.

Further refinement of my rear alignment settings, yesterday. Research and identification of every tab AAD makes, even some “off the chart” items. Had an excellent discussion with Zach yesterday. It was good to talk to someone who at least does autoX with the LX, and has supreme knowledge of these suspensions.

I need a couple of more smaller or 0.5mm increments tabs to make the toe do what I want with the new camber settings in the rear. I am determined to get the rear to hook up for me on this Redeye. It has been a bit illusive, even with giant rubber the clocks say. These little apps we use do record some amazing data during lapping;);) They say we get a reprieve and temps into the mid-60’s in a week or so. I will be able to checkout my hunch. Plus maybe even do a smoke show with some tires that are finished, and need a ceremony. Wonder if that Line Lock button really works?[twothumb]

Long drive, wash, and installed door projector lights. Nice to spend some time with the car today.

Went for a ride. Got caught in the rain, which sucked! Weather forecast way off. Although many warn against it, I had no probs getting the car home on the rear Nitto NT05r drag radials. No abrupt movements is the key. Just like driving in the snow.

Went to cars and coffee with the club and low and behold P2174 code reared it’s ugly face.......again. Checking the map sensors because 2 of the 4 had oil. Of course it’s the one that isn’t easy to get to so after letting the car cool I’m gonna pull that one, the last one to check it. Next pull the throttle body but I’m wondering what’s going on. Any ideas or guidance from anyone’s knowledgeable mind? Any help will be much appreciated.
