1st Mod

Just got done installing Stillen Generation 3 long tube intakes,, took the wife and I almost 5 hours, tuff job but it was worth it, we did it with out removing the bumper, once we pulled it all apart, everything went ok, had to use a roto zip to open the holes where the oem intake was,,, but all and all she's very happy,, next the exhaust, going with the Stillen also...
We did take photo and will try tomorrow to get them on ,,

Just a Question? Why the Stillen Exhaust? For the price on that you can get a Better one like in the Dealers support buys... Stillin Gen 3 love them even have my own... but the exhaust .... I'd look into others IMO... but still thats cool in the wife helping... my wife couldn't tell you what a wrench or a socket is... lol

As far as us going with the stillens had nothing to do with price,, like I said she had the 37 in 08 she love the car,, at that time we went with fast intentions exhaust, and it was a great exhaust, and Ingen intakes,, but after doing some home work we decided Stillen was our best bet, agreed that it took some work to do the install but the end results turned out good. The only thing I wasn't happy with was how the deflector was going to mount, if I were to use the bracket that they supplied it would have been off centered so I made my own.

As far as the exhaust there a few g35 riding around and they sound great, deeper then the F.I. imo,, I'm not by no means saying one is better them the other..

After we install the exhaust hopefully Saturday, will bring it in to have the tune done, he a local guy and doesn't have a dyno, so he calls it a street tune,

He did My 2012 ram, and it worked out great, big difference only thing was I had to switch to 93 octane before I got away with 87 but I don't care as long as I'm able to smoke the tires that all that matter's,

Cost of tune 400
