This update reminds me of the "front grill" thread I was looking at the other day. I think the best front grill mod is an intercooler!
Congrats, looks great. I'm SUPER jealous.

yea i DO wanna do something with the front to show more of it off. yes its a 4" core. and the sound has change tremendously.
ill try and do a sound clip when i get a chance... it seriously sounds like an aircraft. The high pitched sound you hear when they are coming in for a landing. it starts off a little soft and then it just SCREAMS! -------------------- |

Possibly more pressure loss through that IC and its making the turbo work harder for the same boost?
I wonder if thats really what it is? |
