It's the voices in his head that are directing his train of thought. I bet random flies get killed in mid air during the dead of winter at his house.

Yes maybe the 2015 3.5L Ecoboost won't have to be drilled. Gosh I never thought of that. LOL Cause that would mean the 11 thru 14 were immaterial problems to solve with a hole.

Did the weep hole this last weekend, it was ridiculous how much condensation wasa stored in the IC. Still i'm warming the truck and blowing off the condensation, but definitely this idea has done the trick, no shruddering at all. My truck has SCT with 5* 93 performance tune, K&N CAI and S-Works SS 4" Catback exhaust. It runs like a monster, even beating STI's.

Apparently Bigbirt has no idea what a well tuned Eco can do. In a two block, light to light race it's close but I'm 2 out of 2.

All is right in the world again. No misfires since, and I drove it in the pouring rain a good distance again to test it. Here are some picks of the crap that came out right after I drilled the hole. It was a perfect day here in OKC when this crap came out. Happy with my decision.



Bet you are a "super secret" Street Outlaw...go find the farmtruck! and give it a go.
