Thank You for the address. So can you tell me if you have noticed any changes in power and has it changed the sound of your truck? Sorry to keep bothering you.

No problem at all,

Well it did make my truck sound a lot meaner, and growl more if that makes sense.

Power wise i feel a little bit of a difference, i was running a k&n drop in before. however im still running the stock tune.
