had to pop the vent out and jus start cutting little by little so you dont take to much out, im probly goin to be moving it later up by the stock boost gauge, or be getting a pillar

as far as the sound i love it

and the engine bay will be getting a powdercoat makeover here very soon, not sure what will happen with the injector cover yet
