    I got my coupler service kit on the way. I need to do mine. I am actually looking forward to seeing how much snappier throttle response will be after the coupler replacement.

    I have heard they make idle a little louder because the spring is no longer absorbing noises the blower naturally makes.

    It was completely full or full to the fill plug?

    It should only take 4 to 6 oz.

    Yeah it’s definitely more responsive! The rattle is louder and I thought about taking the snout back off and drill the holes a little more on the coupler but I’m just gonna leave it as is. After taking the belt off and turning by hand today, everything sounds good. It’s just funny how you can get so intune with your engine and the slightest sounds make you question things.

    I got it for 34.99 so they just jacked up the price apparently... it is a damn good deal if you ask me.

    Does anyone know if the "URD Mark 2 Competition Y-Pipe" fits above the lowest frame cross support? I want to make sure I can install the flat skid plate set.

    Your window security bar was one of the first mods I did and it is still in there, even though I have a topper blocking the window now. :D

    If you go with Roost's y-pipe, you won't be disappointed.

    I have mixed feelings on the URD headers.

    I like where that Y-pipe comes from, and what it is trying to do performance wise... I also understand the cost due to materials and the custom nature of the job. I just wish I had $1000 sitting around. Until I do the URD pipe will have to do.

    I have an RCI skid that is for the rerouted exhaust. Fits great. I have pics here somewhere...

    Edit: pics suck, but there is a y-pipe under there.
