yea the carnage was cool the dealer had my car for a week to fix the power steering problem and they ran almost 3/4 of a tank of meth out it in less then 5 days and kept beating on it with out meth and when i got it back pop went the sleeve (yes i filled the tank back up) the stock sleeves will handle a 2.5 no problem its in the tune (area47 proved that)

Pro sprot is the same as glow shift, pretty sure they're made in the same factory in china. Prosport is a tad cheaper and has different options for looks. I went with them for my boost gauge because they sell one without tint.
