Going from stock banks box with broken 'cold air' hose to 4" intake with spectre filter and ats intake hat decreased egts quite a bit, and made it much more audible. Before you could barely hear whistle from passenger side getting on it. Now you can hear it very well from both :)

I love cruising in 3rd gear t19 now. Its got the best range for cruising around town, 2nd is too short and 4th too tall. 3rd she'll sing along all day

Boost was up to 5 usually, once or twice 7 but never really had any loads on it.

It doesn't look like I can use that hat unless I run the tubing around and back to the turbo, because the hole is facing away on the hat

The hats rotate on a single bolt, so it can be in any direction. I took a piece of 2" aluminum, a hack saw, and a saw guide and cut the pipe 45 degrees. When you butt two 45's together you can make a 90 bend. Welded it up like that and it was good enough to run it. Not best for smooth flow but it works.

In the future i will just add an IC
