    The flanges should bolt up, so you should be able to install your DP anyway. Not sure why you're waiting.

    Have you gotten a PCM tune yet? that should be priority number ONE before you put that pulley on. The D/P should bolt up to the stock cat back, which will work just fine, that's how I have mine set up.

    Just remember, what you put in must come out. The easier the flow into the blower, the easier it will be to control what goes on inside.

    yea it made sence in my head. and people saying that porting the lower intake manifold does not really help. its making its path more eficent, i dont see why it wouldent help. it allows the motor to huff harder, imo

    With forced induction, the air is going to find it's way...getting the air out of the blower faster and smoother is where the gain is.

    The dp may not bolt in if he got the one for 3'' exhaust (like he stated) normally the 3in dp's are reduced to 2.5 to bolt up to the stock cat back...but some are made for 3inch catbacks...


    would be pointless if all 3 inch dp's reduced to 2.5'' then you had 3'' the rest of the way back..ya know what i mean?
