New Air Filter

Is it possible to get a hard-on just by hearing your FTO engine?

Cause I think it happened. My brother and I just got rid of the stock air box and panel filter and dropped in a new air filter. Any performance gains could just be my imagination but holy crap, the sound my car makes now is insane! It sounds something like a cross between a WRX and an EVO now.

I love my car :)

Just dont go poking around the exhaust. I hear it gets heated a bit.

Sorry, could just be mis-reading.

But what have you actually put on?
Is it just a replacement filter, or have you put a pod on?

If so, then, yes it is possible, and it's nothing to be ashamed of. :lol:

Yes, it's a pod.

To be exact, it's this: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll ... 0169552408

Now forgiving the fact it looks like a ricey piece of crap, I actually just bought it for the metal tube because I was getting quoted around $200 for an adaptor to go from stock plastic pipe to new pod filter. So I put the filter on just for sh*ts and giggles and I can replace it now any time I want.

Here's a pic of the filter in my car. Note the high performance cable ties as indicated by the arrows ;) They are just to keep it sitting firmly in place. Now that I'm happy with it I'm going to look at a more permanent solution.

Nice work...whatever makes you happy :lol:


Does anyone know if I'll need an adapter to fit a 4 inch pod on my Current UAS piping?

I'll be doing a properly enclosed CAI really soon.
