I just put on a ZZP 3" intake. Supercharger whine = .

Also through on a TTR upper engine mount, little viby but not too bad. My wheel hop was minimal before with my OTTP rotated mounts, absolutely zero now.

Up next option B and dual pass to install when I have time. Maybe a touch smaller pulley, loving this nice weather!

Holy ****... the forecast says 13 degrees for Monday and 11 for Tuesday. I'll believe it when I see it... if it ends up being that nice I'll get my Sportlines on and maybe my intake will get here on Monday.

Do u find ur vibrations r worse when it's warm out. My car is solid when it's cold but my mounts vibrate so bad in summer. The intake made me love my car. By far my favorite mod.

my uncle is going to hook me up with a paint booth at AVMAX air at the airport. him and my dad used to strip and spray planes all the time, but that was 10 years ago. my uncles just did his truck in it, and it looks pretty professional. i think he will be the one actually spraying my car. think its a good idea? better than spending probably over a grand to have it professionally done.

My rotated mount was fine up front, but I'm not sure about this TTR mount yet. It vibrates quite a bit, I hope it doesn't get any worse. At like 2500 RPM it gets a weird kind of resonic vibe and makes it seem super loud.
