Sorry for being off topic, but damn your engine bay is mean and clean. Going out to scrub mine right now at 9 PM!

Is that an SRT with AEM stickers..?!?


EDIT: DUDE!! I think your hoses are put on backwards!!!

Swap them, that might be causing your check engine light
Yeah I noticed that threw a link. All this time I had it wrong. Hopefully I don't get the check engine lights. Thanks bud
