+1 on a great thread!

either way i say dont get it

Done and Done.

you have to take the silencer out from behind the quarter pannel
good job though eddie

the awnser has been awnsered in the correct forum before please do a search
yes that and TPS also

looks sweet
the only reason i would run a short ram is because of a FMIC
i think there would be too much turbulance by the maf
its cheaper
and you khow it works
with that said i would get the mesh fogs for the 03 put the velocity stack where the fog light goes and put ram air in the stock box
that would be sweet to have
not sure it would make it faster but cool factor is there
