were on sale at autobarn so i caved and bought one. will pickup a bit of flex pipe for a CAI soon and am talking to a mate with a shield setup to get it a bit better. but it feels a bit better than the K&N panel and xh snorkle i had. also are they sposed to whiste? i think i can hear whistling when it gets up higher in the revs. |

Pod's rock. Mine sneezes under sudden acceleration, and has an awesome off-throttle whistle. Its given the exhaust a heaps better note too.
