    Got it installed along with my URD MAF Calibrator. As with most, i'm impressed with the performance of the pair. Seems to be a good, solid mod. However, WOT from 3k+ and HOLY HELL my truck turns into a loud, obnoxious vortex of un-throaty doom in the cab. I swear to God I must manage to open a black hole every time I get on it.

    I like it at times, I really do, but anything not tied down rattles like hell.

    Anyone have a suggestion or a quick improvement to deal with this? Also, not sure how it sounds outside the truck. I don't think it's that bad.

    Thanks to Gadget and Sam at URD for the quick ship through the holidays!

    That one has a box for the filter correct? If so, one of the corners might be rattling on the fender. If so, put a little pad underneath there to dampen it.

    Nope, it has a metal shield but no box. However, I wonder if a plastic spacer under the 3 bolts would help...
