That filter is HUGE! What procharger is that? F1? Looks sick! More details, your car has a very aggressive look to it, and it can obviously back it up!

LOL...yeh actually all the cars in the shop had Filter "envy" the first time they saw it...thanks for the props! From whats been said with this set up is I may have to slightly move the bottom of the radiator for clearance and thats it. We'll see about that.

Should be up and running next week! Then some tuning/break in miles for the new clutch (hope it holds!) and some final tuning on the dyno to see were we're at with the new set up...

Yes, its a low comp 408 with F1 and quite a few more goodies I'm sworn to secrecy about

More pics later through the entire install... Mike (IconAutoSports) couldn't have made it this far with out ya! The fun has just begun...

Dennis it was my pleasure. If you run into any problems with that tune let me know I'd be glad to lend a hand.
