Its alot louder when a bigger dump pipe is hanging off the back of the turbo also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I circled and drew some things on there. The down arrow is where that random pipe was sitting, the left arrow is where they put the intake with a speaker mesh over the end to filter the air somewhat, and the circle is where it attached to the airbox. The McDonalds cup is just a load of wtf.They sealed my airbox shut with something, not sure what it is but it's solid.Removed my rear speakers and double din deck, along with the ignition barrell (they had the keys so wtf? probably dumped it somewhere, someone saw it and said score and took it) also removed all the trim in the front of the car.Unplugged my brake lights and electric mirrors..Not sure what was at the front, but I think it was the air conditioning? In the pics you'll see some unconnected cables and a big gap infront of radiator. That where the air con was?Broke drivers door mirror and took battery from engine so cant wind up windows or anything.There was a random broken fan in the boot along with some rubber lining from another boot.Rest of the pics are just the damage that was done to the body of the car and the spoiler holes from where they removed it.

discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 16y 9m 27d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 02/05/12 05:13 AM Share Posted 02/05/12 05:13 AM (edited) DS2500 has been great for me. Not a fan of QFM since I got a set where the surface area of the material was less than stock.I pointed this out to the seller and he advised surface area has no impact on friction, one of newton's laws?Less mass to disperse heat though, also left a rust mark in the center (near hub)as this is where the pad was smaller :(Murdok - get it checked next time you're around XFT, get Simon to hand spin it with intake plumbing off and see what he reckons.
