Default Bazooka installed

Installed the bazooka cat back. Took a while getting it all lined up and perfect. Valves are hooked to the Homelink buttons for a hidden look. Also took a video. More to come. Subscribe to my YouTube channel.

I think they only sell one type so whatever that is I couldn’t find information on the website. The oem is definitely not oiled so don’t know why you would need an oiled filter.

Some of the foam filters call for oil; some don't. I'd avoid an oiled filter because of the plentiful stories I've heard about them ruining MAFs.

The Tom’s filter is the only ‘mod’ I’ve done, it’s dry, and it works great. My intake (to me) is a little louder now.

I may have to try it. ✍️

Also, went to the recycling center today. I had to get out of the house somehow.

Where did you guys order the filter from? A little extra intake growl is always welcome!
