My Custom CF Airbox Journey Begins

Thanks guys.
So things didn't go as planned, and I had to delay the install-tune.
But thought I'd show you the finished product anyways:

Finally got that b*tch installed and tuned!!
install was a PITA. The second half of the box was too big.. I had to modify it to fit but I got it on. please excuse the filthy car had just finished installing it .

Went to Dyno, you may remember my my dyno figure was 357.7, but thats without a filter on the dyno, i remove it since the stock intake caps the output at 340whp, so I
remove it to see what my exhaust mods added to the equation.
first pull was 350 whp, super lean with the csl filter.All dyno runs were done with a filter.
The final result was 364.1 whp and 287wtq. A whopping 25 whp over a filtered stock airbox.

Dyno video , rip headphone users.

It feels Massively better! Like a freaking rocket.
Had no grip in 1st 2nd 3rd 4th lol.
255s are done. 265s needed.
The sound alone is worth it, I don't even hear the exhaust now. Total bliss.

Light wheels and a bbk next? lol

Great work man! Clean up that engine bay though :p

Lots of power put down, and that sounds amazing. You should defs be running 275 in the rear or go for a 285.
