Looking good man. How do you like the tires?

 

Hey, thanks! These Falkens are proving to be serviceable road tires; a little hum, but tolerable at highway speeds. Tested them out in pretty loose, small-diameter, pea gravel and they grip hard. Looking forward to testing them in snow....if we ever get any here in Indiana.

 

Looks Awesome! Did you make your hood scoop functional with the cold air intake?

 

Thanks! Yes, in a way, it is now functional, because of the way my guy attached the intake plenum that came with the AFE kit; they don't line up precisely, but eyeballing the setup sure suggests there's a suction-type pull happening. All I know is mid-range (2,000-2,750rpm) pickup has jumped noticeably. It "rorts" louder and provides a mild push-back. It aint no Veyron, but I'm happy with the mod.

 

Awesome! I’d love to see some pictures of the intake mod if you don’t mind. I’m in Indy. Who did the mod if you don’t mind me asking. I’d love to figure out a way to make the hood scoop on my TRD Sport functional.
