where did you get the glass pack at. what does it sound like

summit,its a 1.75 inch from what i remember, sounds great i think. guys who ride beside me when it opens say it sound pretty bad ass.not sure if you can hear it in this video...

its something to think about, between going to the atmosphere and changing to the 3" exhaust,it made a big difference

Modified my cai sheild today for use with the turbo. I basicly cut out a circle where the filter is going to go through to the trubo and put it where the orignal circle was. I have some duct tape holding it together right now. Final product will be wrapped in heat insulation tape and painted with some black ceramic vht.

Waiting on two couplers to finish the turbo to intercooler piping. Decided to reuse the 2.5 inch piping here since it already had a bov mount and i alrady had 2.5 coupler and tbolts from the kit.

thanks, but that's ok.. I have a a secret agent that works at a trucking place.. now if only I can get him to return my text messages. I have failed you.. I still have not done the wire upgrade. Will try next week. The car is up and running sort of and took the car and filled it with gas and reset the batt. Now everything with the IUP and gas level matches.

venting to the atmosphere is better, thats what im doing....its loud though!! i put a small glasspack on mine and love the way it sounds!!

How long is the one your using, shortest i found on there was 9" long 1 3/4" diam gp muff which is still too long imo.
