In the pictures above of the filter. You can see the metal band where the filter meets to make it a circle.

I spin in 2nd and spin a little in 3rd. I really havent had the chance to "open it up" just yet. Maybe I will today. Had a long shift last night

Dp is next!!! Is turbo xs really that good with the K&N? And is it catted or catless?

I picked up my car yesterday. The GMS1 definitely was hitting 20 psi for me and pulled pretty hard. I didn't have a chance to open it up either but second gear definitely pulls harder .

I have the K&N Short Ram going in next week and am still undecided if i'll be doing the downpipe next.

Is there anyone that suggests a different mod after K&N and GMS1 before downpipe that'll give me more power?

GMS1+K&N+catless DP= a fun DD. with warranty!

GMS1 is a canned tune so gains from mods are pretty minimal.

catback is almost pointless when you looks an the amount of money vs. HP gains. specially with GMS1.

Do you have LSD? Spinning in 3rd is hard to do unless it's wet out lol.

I didn't notice any gains when I installed my charge pipes .... only thing i noticed were higher IAT2 temps cause the metal pipes heat up so much.

I have the K&N Sri in right now, it was the first mod I did. I went to the dealer and told them that I was putting in the intake and was looking for a GMS1 also. They said everything would work fine?

Does he not know what he's talking about and I'm going to see problems when I take it in to get the GMS1?

I am also getting the ZZP LNF dp catted and either Hahn full intercooler piping or the ZZP full piping.
