That Stillen bumber frames the APS intercooler perfectly and the side vents will provide good airflow to the CAI's. Looks good and it's very functional.

Frank found the source of my rattle. When Turismo had this exhaust he must have run over a medium sized animal or something because the drivers side mid-pipe was frayed and a bit FUBAR. When the exhaust was mounted it made the two mid pipes touch near the connections and was causing slight chatter as well as bouncing off the crossmember brace. Problem solved - picking up the car tomorrow morning and bringing my baby home for a few days.

Will do, we should meet up anyhow since you are so far north in MD. You may have to sign a confidentiality agreement if you stick around for the dyno session . Hopefully next week, but I have to be in Chicago on Thursday & Friday and I don't want to miss anything, so there may be a slight delay again.
