I understand, and I wasn't trying to be an ***, sorry if I came off that way.

I've said this a hundred times now, but I will try and get a vid-sound clip of my cross over from inside the cabin. You can also hear it on one of my exhaust clips in the product review, but that is from outside the car.

put an intake on it and u will definately know its working because of the sound even on a sohc my friend has a d15 vtec and when he hooked up the intake the noise on vtec it makes is amazing gets everyone looking, i would suggest the intake first to see if the vtec is working because when fit a catback it will drown out almost all the induction sound made by vtec

Hey dude does that include a loudsy muffler to drown the vtec sound because i just hook it up with a cold iar intake hopin to make vtec scream when kicks in but i can't hear a thing. Im really worried about it i fear the worst...that my vtec is death.

Thanks for your help..............
