Hey guys~

I'm gonna search the forum for other threads. But, I need some "current information".

Has anyone tried replacing the factory fogs for 8500K bulbs? And, for those of you that have, do you like the result. I've already replaced the factory headlight bulbs with hi power xenons. I like the result. Lights are less yellow, and more white. But, I'm not sure about whether I should do it on the fogs.

Also, has anyone recently tried installing one of those speed chips into a 2nd gen 3.5? I've heard horror stories about what can go wrong, so I'm wondering if anyone has done it with success. And, for those of you that have done it, have you seen any real improvement in HP and Torque?

Also looking at a "Turbnado" on ebay. It's one of those things you put in the air intake and it swirls the air, etc... I've heard mixed reviews from different people. But, it's only $15. Has anyone actually used one of these not regretted it?

NM, already found my answer. Won't be getting one of these.

I found a set of 8500K krypton/zenon foglamps on ebay. They've got the ionized coating, and because they are so high on the color scale, they almost emit blue light. Actually, the color is different depending on which angle you look at the foglamps. They are incredibly bright and emit a nice ammount of light. Finally, I've fog foglights that match the zenon ones I put in the headlights.

Click that link. These are the exact same bulbs that I got...Good luck
