They all have the same thing and this isn’t new…tons of cars and trucks use the same thing.

Backing up to include the sound deadening that was previously done in prep for this.

H&R springs with 22x10.5 +30 and 315/35’s for reference.

Actually ~81lbs of CLD and maybe another 15 of CCF and some spot treated MLV. I watched the weight of the parts I picked pretty close…my sub is actually under 11lbs. I still need to weight it but I lost the weight of the spare, stock sub and enclosure, and several other small things so there...

I forgot…the only flashy thing I added.

Finished the install and fired it off today with some very conservative XO settings. I’ll rough in the time alignment tomorrow then just get some break in hours on it before it gets turned over to Christerfer Pate on the 14th to really dial it in. Unfortunately the terminals for my XS Power...

Busy day today. I somehow got all three runs of 12ga wire through and into the doors. Black Hole Tiles added to the inner door, solid behind the midbass then spread out throughout the door. 20 tiles per door. Then I added lead wheel weights and more CLD to the speaker mount and screwed on the...

Stiffer springs don’t necessarily handle better at the absolute limit…some body roll is actually a good thing in a big heavy car.

Stopping point for today…NavTV interface and amps are mounted and wired in and the power/ground blocks are mounted. All wiring in the back is complete…tomorrow I start on the doors. New Mosconi stickers for the amps are printed and on the way.

It doesn’t have to be exactly E50. I test my normal station every few weeks but my normal 3X a week fill ups I just calculate and go.

Vinyl wrapped is much better…that bare plastic wasn’t gonna work.

I can already tell you the AFe doesn’t come with anything but the piping to the turbos. The FenFab charge pipes are not included with his intakes either. Those are extra pieces you can have him fabricate.

Nah…I’m just old and have a lot of free time. lol

ABS plastic laminated to the frame for the DSP controller mount. I don’t think I like it much…gonna wrap it with factory match vinyl instead.

I’m getting the AFe just because I like the looks of it. If there’s any tangible benefit that’ll just be a bonus. I’m trying to not be embarrassed every time I open the hood. lol

Agreed. Don’t add holes.

The air intake snorkel is about half way up the grill on the drivers side…if you submerged that you ingested water and hydrolocked the engine. Best case scenario you pull all the spark plugs and turn it over by hand to force the water out and it’ll be fine. Worst case you ingested water and bent...

The backstory is…someone was on a dyno and took off the top of the airbox and picked up about 15HP…so yes opening it up can make more power. Now doing that anywhere but a dyno doesn’t make sense but still…it made more power on back to back pulls.

Mount for the DSP controller built today. I’ll cut and cover it with 1/8” ABS tomorrow so it’ll look like it was always there. Still have access to the USB and power ports behind it…barely.

Had a few minutes to spare so I pre-wired the distro blocks. I thought I had some 16g wire for the DSP and LED wiring but I’ll have to add that tomorrow then mount it in place.
