yes the sound is awesome but I feel like the intake sound gets a little softer after a few days. I don't know maybe it's just me. My problem with this intake is I don't have power in low rpm, like from 1k to 2.5k. If I apply more gas around these rpm range, then the car will surge which really annoys me. I'm thinking of doing what you did with the gasket. Hopefully it will solve my problem otherwise I'll have to go with something else. On DS mode, the car runs great. Still a little power loss at low rpm but no surging.
to the sound but it comes with a problem
