Well I sure don't remember seeing my stock wheel look like this when I did my 6637 install.....but I'm sure it was like this from running my drop-in K & N for 60,000 miles. I have absolutely no play in the wheel (thank god) and the WW cured all surge I had with a nice whistle to it too......check out the stock wheel!

Well I was SHOCKED when I saw that stock wheel lol.....I had no idea. The audio is a good idea, it really gets to whistling once boost is over about 12 lbs. My max boost is only 23 lbs now, I lost a few on the top end, but I'll take that over surge anyday! If I do up-pipes I'll probably gain a few back......oh it never ends!

I max out at about 23 lbs too, but I rarely get it up that high unless I am kickin it pretty good, towing a trailer, at high elevation.

Who do you think you are, speed racer?

Remember that video, a while back, of that 7.3 with the WW pulling down that addition on that house? That video was like, ****!

Hey..you need to go find something to pull down, you know, for research, so we can hear your turbo.

Oh I remember. Still one of my favorite videos. I don't know what I liked best. The visual or the audio. Watching the addition finally collaspe or listening to the turbo.

Travis,

Did you do the wheel yourself. If so you got all the talent you need to do the glow plugs.

I sure am glad that the guy before me stuck with the factory air filter. Mine looked like brand new when I pulled it. That new sound is nice aint it Travis.
