Tried to go cheap getting a set of tires mounted only to have my rims mangled by a crap installer and had to pay again to get it done right. The list goes on and on. Just pay for the good stuff up front and you'll fare much better in the long run.

Typically cars run LEAN when you have full bolt-ons and no tune, not rich. Do you have an AF monitor? I bet you're lean, not rich. Rich would require a bad tune.
i just realized something.... i think the dealer here is a bullcraping me whats the typical ambient temperature of an intake? mine said it was sucking in 180 degrees... they said the factory spec is 10 degrees?!? is that even possible? and on the paper it says that i need injectors to accommodate the bolt ons but it also says im running rich so wouldnt that mean that mean by adding bigger injectors it would make my car even more rich? and is this true i qoute the paper..

"conclusion engine modifications resulting in uneven airflow causing a/f mixture to be out of specification
heat soak causing ecu to retard ignition timing, in order to prevent abnormal combustion/detontation.which in turn is leading to premature fouling of spark plugs"

they said number 3 spark plug is out but shes very smooth on idle not sputtering or shaking?!? man idk any input greatly appreciated
