Also, is it the #4 and #11 fuses I pull to reset the computer? Thanks for the help. Black '98 SVT KKM Intake 17" Enkei's SS Y-Pipe 9mm Ford Racing plug wires Various aesthetic mods.

Next question - I assume a little smoke is normal? Love the sound, though! Black '98 SVT KKM Intake 17" Enkei's SS Y-Pipe 9mm Ford Racing plug wires Various aesthetic mods.

I also guess that the cat may need a little time to "break in" as well. I've been smoke free since hour 2....day 1.... 95 Mystique LS Young America edition, V6, MTX, Yeah...it's stock.
