Mike Egan has a web page showing photos of his mods. Great page:

http://mikeegan.stormpages.com/stihome.html

For some reason the page is down right now, at least for me. Try the page in an hour
and see if it's back online.

I have not done the mod yet though.

yeah, I did the silencer first and it let you hear the intake and bov much more, but only in the car, but once I put on the uppipe and downpipe on, all I could hear is the turbo spool, sounds kinda like one of the cars from the jetsons(part throttle)
although I may be desensetized, my other car is a firebird with a 305/.509" cam, 2 chambers and 2inch primarys
