Whoa...EWG, with your exhaust, that thing is going to crazy loud! I have TGV deletes sitting on the shelf, can't justify spending the money on another tune just to put them in, will add them with my next major upgrade. Let me know what kind up numbers you end up with!

For sure I will let you know. Have to get that EWG so I won't cry about the sound of EL headers

Tuners hate those EWGs unless you're running a large turbo...messes with the mixture. Are you consulting your tuner before you make these mods? Best bet is always to get your tuners advice first.
