No, it's not possible. Granted I've never seen that part covered in leather, but on my 00 that portion of the handle is actually structural.

I made a rear brace using 3/4" square stock aluminum. I have no trinkets, but I feel as though it changed handling around high g turns. It will "stiffen" the rear and reduce the tendency of the rear...

Pst2 and piwis are totally different systems and the directions in the fsm do not flow to piwis.

My guess is you had either a short that is now unshorted or a loose connector that finally seated.

If the dash lights are all functioning properly now, I would leave it alone and see what happens....

Not to derail the discussion but what the hell would cause those plugs to blow out?

Let's assume for a minute that Jon is correct - you blew your cooler orings and lost half your oil.

The map sensors will do the job since they are hot film and have iat built in. It's not as accurate as using a map sensor but the nbo2s will smooth it out.
