It is just blower whine. Opening up the intake side makes you able to hear it more.

IF you got that much just go buy a HP Tuners program and learn how to DIY it.

Don't get the wizaird. Make your own for $50...it will do as good if not better. You don't have to make it all fancy nice with roof flashing, custom tubing bends...hell just get a piece of 4" PVC pipe...a coupler, and a 22.5* bend and put a filter on it and shove it in the fender.

If you are getting a mail order PCM get an Intense...since no one seems to be going anywhere at Overkill lately from what I keep hearing...

Downpipe is good too...the money you save from not buying the wizaird and the tuner itself...get a set of new plug wires and autolite 104 spark plugs and a 180* T-stat (if you haven't done those already)...might even be able to scrimp up enough for a front powerlogged manifold...

you can get the Autolite 104's and a 180* tstat for less than the price of filling up your tank... HIGHLY recommended mods...

That is the one we've been talking about.

i must have not read into your personality enough. you clearly dont have the skill to do a cam or intercooler setup. do simple intake and exhaust mods and be done with it.

if you cant do the work then i dont see a whole lot of reason to mod a car. that takes like 90% of the fun out of it.

It isn't that easy to just "get a cam" There is alot of work that goes along with it, even if you pay someone...they have to know how to tune the 3800 platform or it is pointless.

i was debating between intense and overkill but after i added it all up intense was going to be about 60 bucks more. intense is 200 with out a core then after i added all the other stuff i wanted done to it it got kind of hefty.

They charge you x amount of dollars on your bill and then give it back to you when you send back your factory pcm.

if you send back your factory pcm. i wanna keep mine
