Movies and Pictures of my new Rumbler, CAI, scoop, etc.

Hey guys. I finally got some work done on my car. First thing I got is the rumbler ... I love it! These clips kinda suck and are horribly edited, but here you go. Oh, and I don't have my tips on yet...

and

Soon after that my K&N full Cold Air Intake showed up and I threw that on! I love it too... It sounds gooood. Love the sucking noise when you push the pedal. It sure SUCKED trying to fit that tube in that tight space... but it turned out great.

A day later I was STILL motivated and I put the homemade under-body ram air scoop on my car to feed the intake even better... This kinda took me a long time, but it was worth it!

When I was done with that, I decided to paint my rear brake drums black to at least look better than the gross redish rust color they were... I think it looks reaaaaaal good now. The color of the hub was the color of the drum. Now it looks good with my front red painted calipers.

And with the wheel on...



And here is one final picture of the rear of my car with the new exhaust ... Even though I HAVNT got my tips on yet. Haven't even purchased them yet. :banghead:



All in all, the 3 performance mods have made a noticable difference! I can roast the tires much easier now. And they are 275's. Oh, and I took it for a stroll today, and it works MUCH better up in high speeds ... It cruises up to 100 MPH much faster than it used to, and it does it soundin Goooood.

Haha, alright, im done ...

Haha ... Now that I look at it agian, I really wish I did too!! It would have been such a perfect view. I was just trying to give a good exhaust sound clip under load, but it would have been a perfect time to flame em'! :banghead: :banghead: Maybe I'll try agian tommarow.

I'm also going to try to get a fly-by movie clip soon too ...

hey man, i dont know if you remember me but i emailed you about the rumbler and ram-air scoop.. anyways, car sounds great. Im planing on doing everything you have done. The chrome intake looks awesome! i think im going to get it instead of the SLP CAI. The Rumbler sounds pretty good too, i love it. You definitely need some tips, which ones are you planing on getting? Get some headers and a hi flow cat and that thing is going to sound even better. You think its possible on getting a sound clip of the intake? im extremely curious on what it sounds like.. anyways man good job, im happy for you.

Thanks everyone for the comliments. Yeah, Whats up Gilbert! Glad to see you finally joined the forum. I'm thining of getting the SLP Dual/Dual tips. I don't think I'll be getting a cat or headers though, because I just want to get this car sweet then sell it for a LT1.

Speaking of, I just rode in one today... Omfg. Haha... He had it opened headered. He's got bout 400 RWHP ... that thing sounds like a BEAAAAAAAST. thats what I want.
