It looks good on there Mike! Not much on the turbo whine eh? I wonder what it sounds like outside with someone goosing it. Good news on the BOV.

They sound a little louder. I never really jumped on it cause when I went out to drive it, the school busses were out. Where there are busses, there are LEO’s just looking for people “jumping on it”!

Gotcha, good to be safe around school buses whether you think LEO is there or not.

Thanks for checking out my build!
The carpet is called BedRug. Completely washable and easy on the knees if you have to go crawling around the bed to retrieve cargo. I don’t haul much back there, it’s kind of a “pavement princess”!

Default Intake update!

Went for a long-ish drive into town this morning. As I expected, no noticeable increase in “seat of the pants”! That’s okay though, the tune takes care of that department. Just cruising around town, the truck sounds the same with just a slight increase in turbo whistle. Different story when you mash it. The turbos come to life and sing a little louder(just what I wanted) and you can hear the intake bark! All in all, pretty happy with the setup. Was it worth $350? To me, yes, to others, who knows!
Best thing is NO engine or wrench lights!

Awesome. Sounds like it works just as expected. Plus... it looks super cool.

Thanks Mike, I think you made up my mind. I see one on the horizon.

they make a kit for your gen John. It looks like a different, longer snorkel so the sound may be different. Check out Stage 3. That’s where I got mine.
