Okay so today i managed to bet my BOV installed (plumb back style) its a Turbosmart Kompact 25mm one. And i also manged to make myself quite a bargain. I manged to get a brand new Full SS induction Growler Kit for the car for $400! RRP is roughly $695 i believe :-P I was quite happy with that price.

However is it a bad thing that the kit manages to stay put and fairly solidly without drilling the two holes and adding the 2 screws? I could have got the SS Big mouth kit as well which was $299.. But im happy with what i got for now..

Any thoughts on the 2 screws (is it possible to have no need for them) or should i just add 1 on their or something.

The growler kit is EFING awesome even thou the computer still needs a few more kms or relearning and to get rid of the few flat spots the noise and difference it makes is wonderful. Even the turbo spooling is louder than before. I think it was money well spent tbh.

Okay time for an update, the new car now dubbed "J-Lo" has gone through an awesome change. Ive changed the BOV/the CAI is a Growler intake by SS inductions and just last week i got my exhaust modded for a bit of extra noise, and HOLY CRAP!! Got the center muffler removed and just the difference from that is unbelievable!!

Throttle response acceleration and the turbo spool is insane now, the turbo spools up alot quicker and louder too, the intake still makes a wicked noise but the exhaust sounds bloody brilliant!!! Although the only bad thing is the cold morning starts/cold exhaust system she sounds a bit too lumpy/f@rt haha. But as soon as soon as the car is up to a proper temp its insane. Im going to put up some piccys soon so stay tuned.
