ok guys i put it on monday and i love it, i really cant tell difference in perdormance but the sound changed alot! i can hear the engine a little better, the wind goin in the intake and the hissing noise when i change gear, and its not anoying... i just wish it would bn cooler in texas so i could really feel the difference because the heat here affects it, so ive heard...

thanks ^

A quick question, is it posible for my car to b slower with the K&N intake? cause ive read a thing or two about that and i dont really remember when it had the stock one but acceleration doeasnt seem that :x , mayb its just me cause i mayb got used to it...

oh and yesturday it was raining and i did my first donuts

and its harder than it seems... even in the wet and with those almost slick tires it has soo much grip... it was a nice expericne though...

haha

alright well i have done something to it... i got it tinted and i jsut debadged it, i dont havepictures of the tint, i got 25 all around, xcept in the back window i got 20. ill take pictures of that later, it looks very good, and it helps soo much! i used to have the ac in max b4 now its cold, it really helped!

and the debadging well i was boored, it was easy and it looks good:
b4:

After:

ill take a better photoshoot later when the weather is better and my car is clean

C'mon you can do better than 3 pix and 2 of them from the same angle + with you in the reflection

get a bucket, wash her up and take proper pix 8)

oscargarza88 · 07-23-2006, 05:36 PM

ops: i was tryin to avoid that... i have nothing better to do so i think i will... dam u Arman!

ARMAN · 07-23-2006, 05:40 PM

I was glad to help

oscargarza88 · 07-23-2006, 08:49 PM

ok here are a couple... this house is right next to mine and i saw it and i got the idea... my camera suks alot! 3.1 mpx so the pictures are not good... if it would b a good camera/good camera man, they could have been ok.
oh and Arman, i didnt wash the car sorry... haha, its probably going to rain all week so i was lazy...

actualyl that was the only good one.. because there wasnt enough light in there so the other poctures came out very pixelated

like this:

*Dammit! im in the reflection in the picture again! grr

ARMAN · 07-24-2006, 05:10 AM
