anyway, it was just too much noise for me at higher rpm...i like it quieter.



ive done that while squatting down to clean my wheels. scared the shittoes. since i was in my garage. hahaha.
Ken-san do you have a good recommendation for checking the stock temps before I install the intake and then afterwards? I don't have anything with remote sensor though. Also, when you say higher RPMs, how high? I'm hoping its slightly louder but close to stock up to about 3K RPMs, maybe 3500 - above that I don't care how loud it gets

It usually happens when I'm digging around the computer closet, but I've done the same thing myself in the garage Its pretty loud with the garage door down, too.
