ok guys... just ordered the carbon fiber intake duct to install in the front bumper, and a cheap intake. This probably won't help with power.. but since cooler air is coming in hopefully SOMETHING will flow..

BUT main reason? sound.. i love how the intakes give that throaty sound...

Do you guys think i can just put in Test Pipes and it should be a little meaner?

Also, i just bought led interior and license plate lights..

just the white ones the reading lights.. nice and clean... figured it matches the white of the car nicely..

But does test pipes with stock exhaust sound any different?

also, will it net any noticeable power from the butt? and the real dyno?

oh so it will be louder some? by a lot or no?.. combined with an intake i'm sure maybe just a little?

so i assume going with a cat back it would probably give more

how much were you selling yours B?

i found some TITEK 2.25 inch TP with hardware for 112.00.. not bad
