    Remove Hood Scoop

    Maybe you could find someone with the same color car with no scoop who would trade hoods with you, It would be a lot easier and cheaper. Most people who don't have one want one.

    06 mods no tuner driving

    You really need a tune to get the most out of the cams and intake. You will probably get a lean code without a tune and eventually burn a valve due to running a lean air/fuel mix.

    How TiVCT works

    The whole thing reeks of failure. That's a lot of o-rings moving at high speed. I wonder how long they will last before you start getting oil blow-by and loose function? 50k? 75K?

    Performance Chips Question

    DO NOT use any kind of chip on your car, it's a scam. It is nothing more then a resister that tells the computer false info to get it to change the timing a little. You want an SCT X3 tuner and a good tune written for your car by someplace like Brenspeed. Research is what you need, search for...

    exhaust

    Didn't effect the paint at all. Posted a video link for you above. can't find one of someone actually cutting one though. You can see it really is just a small piece you cut out. It is thin and soft and cuts pretty easy.
