Installed Pro-Dry Afe Intake!!

Installed the intake last night
Maybe i am new about the engine work or whatever
but it took me 2 hrs to actually install this
taking out the stock intake box is pain in the ass.....especially the rubber attached to the stock intake!!
that shit took me forever to remove it!
and there is so little space to work on it...
but everything else is perfect
really love the AFE intake.....
i can hear the turbo spool ...
and i noticed some low end toq has been decrease a little bit
but the mid range and the higher RPM is way better than before!!! over all i give
8/10!


Ps:sorry for the dirty engine bay

2 hours?? Damn.. it did take a little long.. but yeah I understand it's a pain in the ass to take out those rubber grommets.. the sound will become more pronounced as you drive your car, and throttle response will be more solid as well! So do you think you lose power with this intake?

hahaha yeah .....maybe i am new to those engine work!
really? the sound will actually become louder?
but i do believe the power will increase a little more....since the computer needs to get adapt....
for the power....as i mention on my last post ...i can feel a little decrease on the low end toq...but once it hits 2.5-3k RPM u can really feel the intake is doing its work!
and u can feel it pulls a lot harder than before
