The K&N was worth it just to hear the intake sound. I did a "best offer" on ebay and got it shipped to my house for $208. I did not run it before and after to get an ET improvement. I know it's about .25 sec faster in the quarter with the K&N and freeing up the exhaust. There's got to be another tenth or two if I get the same weather as the baseline runs.

What kind of exhaust work have you done? I'm getting my catless DP tomorrow with a cutout.

3" downpipe, 3" all the way to the Y, 2 1/2" from there to the 2 1/2 Flowmaster Delta Flow 40 series. Cat is still in - my exhaust guy opened up the stock cat from 2 1/2 to 3". I suppose I should put that in my sig.

Ok, I put in a cutout today and I was putting in my catless DP until this rain moved me inside.
