Two Mods In One Day (BOV install)

[LAF]

Got my rear sway bar on from the dealer today and got home my BOV was here. Just put it on. WHAT A PITA!!!!! But it now goes Psssssssst

Was more into taking the stress off the turbo than the sound though. I now hear the Turbo at all times for sure.

Stage 1 shipped today.

Hope I am doing the right thing in the steps I have takin.

Rear sway, BTG exhaust, BOV, Stage 1 , then Strutt Brace.

Time will tell .........

YOU'RE ON THE RIGHT TRACK BUDDY, BUT IF YOU'RE NOT REALLY INTO THE BOV SOUND, STAW AWAY FROM A BTG INTAKE, I REMOVED IT ONLY AFTER 3 DAYS, TOO LOUD!!! WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE IN TERMS OF PERFORMACE WITH THE BOV, MINE IS STILL ON BACKORDER.

Mex, how many more horses did the intake give you? My K&N Typhoon feels like about 10 hp min!! It does sound loud on acceleration but quiet on cruise!

IT FELT PRETTY STRONG, BUT IT WAS TOO LOUD.

MEXICANPT,
Not sure there is any performance increase. Just the sound. As I said I did it to prolong the life of the turbo. From what I read it just helps the turbo from being slammed to a stop when you let off of gas, and keeps the turbo spinning giving better response when you get back in it. I will take your advice on an intake. I am not into loud. I just dropped in a K&N and removed the white silencer and called it a day. Also am waiting to see if what is being said that Stage 1 works best with stock air box in place to be proven, or dis-proven by real life numbers.

Where is the silencer located. I installed a K&N drop in while I wait for the Typhoon that Steelblue is testing.

Also I am tinking of the Magnaflow system. Anyone know the increase in that if any.

dcrumlich... the magnaflow system fits well and sounds nice an mellow. But to get a decent gain from a bolt on system I'd ditch the muffler all together and go straight.
