SES light = P0171....too Lean Bank 1...hmmm
I also found 2 loose nuts on the manifold to head flange closest to cylinder 1. Lots of black exh residue around the exh port too. Tightened those back up and checked teh rest too, cleaned that area, then reset light. Going on a beat run in a bit to see if the light comes back on.

yeah the arc gets really hot and cold. i love it though. on the gsr anyway, it makes the shifter significantly shorter than stock.

It'll take some time to get used to it but I love the way it looks. All I need to do is swap out the shift boot now to maybe a black suede boot and reupholster my steering wheel in suede since it's slowly peeling in some spots. I'd love to black out all the tan parts or whatever color you wanna call the pieces in the interior that aren't black and wrap the headliner in suede, but IDK how much that'll cost

lol. My main concern is actually rolling out the suede and applying it. I'm not sure if that's one thing I'd wanna do myself. Maybe if I had someone helping me that has done upholstery some what but most likely if I do have it done, Ill be taking it somewhere to have it done. How's your X in the snow? I remember seeing it for the 1st time at DSG when you 1st bought it. IMO you bought the best color (I also wanted a white Evo).
