I remember leaving ICS after my tune and Al wasnt too far behind me in the red evo and I heard that thing from far. It is definately an attention grabber. Remind me of my 14b days....think small turbo/small boost = very early wastegate opening (loud at 3500 rpm till 7K).

At WOT, the sound cracks extremely rapidly and overwhelms the TBE.

Not sure if I've answered your concern...but I'm not sure what you're looking for.

There you are. I bought your gfb and left the box with the other trumpet there. My mistake.lol. "Overwhelm" would be the appropriate word here!

You can call ICS Performance in Stamford CT, ask for George Kakaletris--owner. They might prefer to have car so the dump tube can be properly aligned--the tube comes down between the DP and the LICP...so depending on your configuration, they may have to make adustments. I run a BR DP and a lower pipe from ETS...the fabrication guy designed mine w/almost an inch clearance from both.

Cost...that's also something to be worked out w/George.
