no, making **** up is if i fixed your post to say "more horsepower and torque" (i'm sure lobuxracer or Kurtz can refute that in more technical terms).

i don't know, did you expect to dremel a hole in your 2is' lower airbox and not expect it to be louder and as such attract more attention (read: hear you coming)?

fixed again.

btw, don't make assumptions that i don't like loud cars. there's a time and a place for it, but not during daily driving and not on public roads.

not much else to be offered here, so i'll make my exit.

Hi all,
just wondering what kind of filter are you using with the stock intake box?
Fsport? Toms?

thx

After doing F sport lower intake box it does rumble a little bit after 4K. You can definitely hear intake rumble at the higher end, adds a more aggressive tone while accelerating. Great mod if you want to keep stock.

If you add in a high flow filter, its got to flow better than stock.
