Woo-hoo! I'm in!

Rylan, please bring a set of front GTR-VR pads for me...

Also, do you really think an AEM intake alone is enough to violate the sound limit?

I find it depends on how many holes you have in the fender lining.

My car has a number of holes cut for the intake. What I do is to cover all that whole area of the inner fender with cardboard so that there is no direct hole for sound to get out. In particular I think its the area right in front of the wheel where the intake bends into the engine compartment and the open front brake duct hole.

I have a ~3" hole that goes between the wall between the radatior area and the intake that I don't insulate w/ cardboard/duct tape.

Sounds complated but it takes me only about 20 minutes to do.

And k, added a fronts to my order for you.

OK, that's good feedback. I still have all my underbody and wheel-well plastic, and can close off the front faux-duct with cardboard.

OTOH, I also have the Mugen exhaust...Guess I'll pack up the stock airbox just in case.

Thanks...

I think you'll be ok, but never hurts to pack one. I should bring mine and rent it for $100 per day. ROFL



I hate running my stock exhaust, but my single speed exhaust is WAY too loud.

I'm gonna equip my car with a loud PA system and play Return of the Valkeryes so they can't hear my exhaust.

I love the smell of contraversy in the morning.
