After I installed a K&N intake plan on changing it later on to another one I'll let y'all know ;)

I decided what route to take... Either I could go street or off road... I decided a bit of both something different I decided to go with the 18in Black Mamba MR1 wheels CURRENTLY wrapped in Goodyear Silent Armor tires (245/65r17) donated by my good bud Josh thanks !

I also plasti dipped the grille and installed my fog lights. Got a custom switch that goes to the right on the steering wheel I like it came with a black one but the voltage kept frying it so got this neat looking one :)

I do plan on painting the washer black :)

After I did a full LED interior job red in the back for my people who like to sleep don't shine the light in their face lol

After this I honestly forgot I think I did an exhaust job at first I did the flowmaster 40 series without a catback later on I teamed up with my team of bad influences (Jeff and Josh) and got a custom catback 2.5 exhaust job done keeping the flowmaster had a chrome tip but took that shit off and went classy with a black Gibson exhaust tip recommended by Hasan

Thanks bro just got my liberty up pipe jeff need your help bro. So how do I do this according to the thread I need to cut the accordion piece after the bump then connect it to the iat? BTW the iat won't reach so I got a power wire (review coming later) that connects between iat and the senor on the liberty pipe? Hmu thanks

Power wire PERSONAL review.... I must say I like this mod... Everybody MIGHT have a different experience but .... I feel a very minor (to a 3.7 might be a BIGGER difference) difference in the throttle response... Feels like she pulls a little faster at 650 rpms then more harder at 3000 rpms.. Might be my head but tomorrow is a new day we'll see if this mod was worth it. So far I like it. Those are my two cents

After having this power wire for a while now ... Here are my thoughts.. My rig had never reacted more quickly then now... I guess every bodies rig reacts differently but mine feels different throttle response MUCH better when driving manual I feel her get up and go faster than before. I like this mod and I recommend it... Remember your vehicle might react differently :)

Thats because the wire is tricking the ecu into running more agressive timing. It thinks the incoming airflow is colder then what it really is. Its the agressive timing thats making it react faster. But its not really making "more" power then it would running in closed loop mode (when you first start your car)
