Looks good too, do you have to remove bumper to change air filter? I like intake sounds in the 8, not so fond of droning exhausts at hwy cruise (from exp in other cars) which is why Im getting an AP dual resonated midpipe first then see how it and stock catback sounds at hwy speeds, if it isnt too bad I like the Borla from youtube clips.

The hp gains i see advertised seem to be mostly from removing the cat correct? Like the TurboXS some sites show dynos of a 17hp improvement, this system replaces cat with straight pipe but Ive heard the TurboXS is way loud.

The stock shifter is relatively short, but you haven't lived until you've installed a true AFE short shifter and Voodoo Magnum ****.

It's a fulcrum-leverage thing.
