Tomorrow morning I am going to attempt the HFCs and I am dreading the Demon bolts, but I did go to church tonight and I lit a candle as well. I have all of my tools ready and I am hoping for the best. I can't wait to hear and feel the power. If I have time, I may get a dyno to check on the final results. I don't have a baseline, but I don't really care what I used to have, it's all about what I end up with at the end of the day.
Lol you might need a couple more candles... I would love to see the dyno. I'm going to dyno mine after all is done. I was going to go with the berk cbe but I fell in love with look of ark and many have said the ark was a little louder. I wish I had a friend with a lift! Good luck with the project man!!

You will like the ARK once they break in. Between them and the K&N typhoons, mine makes some nice music throughout its pipes in and out.

Intakes will be my next performance mod... So I should expect the sound to get better after when?

Thanks for the well wishes!! If you read my last post, you will see how my day went. All in all, not so bad. I did drive to the dyno place, but they did not have time today to do mine in such short notice. I may have to make an appointment to "get-er done". The place I went to is called RDP Motorsports (RDP Motorsport - Dyno Tuning, Custom Vehicle Fabrication, Racing) and they had cars there with over 1400HP, although they were all American muscle, thjey said that they can get parts for almost any vehicles and also do the installation as well.

Yes, the lift was a real lifesaver, even though the place looks like an episode of "American Pickers". I bet you that I saved over 6 hours of total installation time for the CBE and HFCs that I would have spent by doing on my back.
