Damn sid i really like the engine cover. The $40 dollar SRI is really sweet though. How does it sound? Did you get any gains from it?

Sounds throaty at WOT, quiet at part throttle. Butt dyno says YEAH! They say it has to gain 5whp before your butt dyno feels a difference. I feel a difference from midrange all the way to redline.

WOW!!!! That looks awesome. I cant wait to see pics of it installed. The hood is really gonna look sick too. I still cant decide what to do to my cf cover. I gotta come up with something quick to top that though, if its even possible. haha.
