No time for pics (workday and a bunch on here already anyway, mine is polished btw) but did take it for quick spin.

Some impressions:
-Took 40 minutes total install as I took my time, old pipe was on fairly tight.
-Also figured out how to quit busting those blasted engine cover clips
-At 5K rpms there is a definite kick... I know it was NOT there before...
-When stopping the gearing down is more pronounced, you can feel it
-Sound is more pronounced, but only when rpms climb
-Instructions could not have been easier

I have to drive to Chicago & back tomorrow so that will cover the break in... I will "have some fun" on the return and see how she runs...

 

Nice. Hey, when did you order yours? I just called them yesterday and was told the intakes would be coming in 5-10 days.

 

Finally placed it 2 weeks ago... got the last one Luis had in stock... I had been on the list and missed out twice previously, he was good enough to email me updates
