Just ordered the slotted and dimpled black zinc rotors with semi metallic brake pads. The more expensive ones come with a lifetime unlimited mileage warranty so I didn't think I could pass those up. The person that answered the phone spoke English as her first language and was very knowledgeable. They actually turn them and put zinc coating on them as they are ordered. We'll see how they turn out.

I did the vent to atmosphere mod. Long story short all you need is a 1.125 chair cap for the intake tube if you want it to be loud. I took the time to get a crank case breather filter and rubber hose to put on the bov but it literally sounds the exact same as it does through my intake. So if you want more turbo sound without buying an intake put the filter on the bov and you have the same sound. I'm going to play around with putting a hose on it and running it up to my intake so hopefully it's a little louder and better protected.

Maybe you didn't seal the intake all the way? I'm going to undo it when I get the chance. It's cool for awhile but it's already wearing off

Does anyone have pictures of 2015 or 16 sport rims on a gray 2009 or newer truck? I've been debating switching my rims to those but I'm having a hard time picturing what they look like.
