  1. I’m no expert expert on hooking this **** up
    But exhaust gas plumbed into a vacuum port doesn’t seem right IMG_0006.jpeg

  4. Guy I bought it from gave up and put stock stuff back on it. Said he bought it this way
    I’ll plumb it correctly when I use it
    The exhaust plates are sold with 2 and a single threaded hole. Wonder why

    I never ran those. They bark the loudest when the 2 sides are totally separate , hooking that heat plate up lets the 2 mix together and takes the sharp crack out of the exhaust tone....maybe the one with just one tapped hole is for guys like me who want their cars LOUD, only hooked up to one of the headers....

    What Moriarity said. I've never run a heated intake, although some say it's an absolute necessity. Maybe in colder climates and vehicles driven daily.
