My next mod will be a pro tune. Talked to Chuck CoW, once car is back together (flared quarters) gonna go to his shop.

Got mine installed with no issues so far. Took it for a drive it seemed alittle peppier but not really sure. But I only got $80 in the whole thing and the other reason was adding some small light bars without chopping up my other fog light surrounds.

The install is a PITA, but you'll enjoy the results. I went from Stock, to Blackwing, to Vararam w/Power Duct. Couldn't feel a real difference in performance with either CAI, but The VR looks neat.
