Nice. That's the exact sound I want then. The video WestBlue posted has the FSWerks but he isn't running a downpipe yet, so it's a little quieter than yours.

I took some videos on the drive in and I'll get some on the way home as well and post them up when I get home. It seems like the phone may have caught the sound decently, but I won't know until I hear them on a headset. It's still burning-in so it should be a touch deeper after 1k miles, but probably not noticeable enough with a phone or computer speakers.

How the power response and all that? Sorry for all the questions, I just plan on getting this set up so I kinda want to know what I'm getting in to. Ha.

No worries about questions-I'm the same way. I would rather know up-front before I spend my money if something is going to be worth it or just a waste.

The power delivery is similar to OEM, though it's more of a sledge-hammer type of hit once you're about mid-way through building boost due to the faster spool and higher boost pressure. It usually tops out around 22.5 psi, though I've seen 23 once. The OTS Stage 3 tune has a lot more vibration than the FreekTune on Stage 1, but that will smooth out once I get a revision or two into it.

Nice. I'll be doing the intercooler and charge pipe kit here soon, then turbo back kit in the spring.

Randy said just send him the info when I get those on and he'll make a refined map catering to those. So I don't think I'll be running Cobb's OTS stage maps.

Ok, here are a couple that may or may not sound ok. You're looking at my dash.

I like it, how did the rest of the install on the other parts go?

The overall install was pretty easy, actually. Someone with tools could easily do this entire swap (FMIC, pipes, TBE) in a day assuming they soaked the upstream sensor in PB Blaster the night before.

What all did you order from them?
Both cars got the door inserts, shift boots, armrest covers, and visors while the FiST will also get the steering wheel recovered in a few weeks.
dyn085 are these the interior parts you were talking about before that you were testing?
Yup!
