Hey, try to hook up with Gordy, too. He finished his ricer pipe setup.

And PM me your cell number, and be ready to hit the road if I get the chance.

Bill'* car sounds great. That was one of the first things PDad and I commented on when we met him at the WCBF.

When I had the FWI put on the 91 last month, I found it loud as hell.... and it still is... esp anything over 3500rpm....

But... I did notice a lot more power, esp above 70kph.... so I live with the sound now.


You said yours is giving you no extra power... that sucks.
But I would love to hear a sound clip or even better, a video.

That is one thing the makes the CAI sound a plus. Just before boost kicks in, it sounds like a small turbo. People'* heads turn when they hear it.

Hey will is there a way to get an SE to sound like that?? Mine sounds like its gasping for air not deep like that... Is it more the filter, or the */c and your mods?
