  • Best Mod Combo?

    Hey,

    Well I am looking to do a few mods uncluding a 4-1 exuast and pod filters and rejeting accordingly. What is the best pod filter set up? I have read a few pieces here and there that some pods are not that great. what road do I need to travel? I have seen the usual cone pods and the oval ones.....is one better than the other?

        I believe it was Trbig/Tod that posted some photos and such comparing the Oval pods to the Round ones, and that the OVAL ones didn't have the big LIP on them to interfere with air flow like the smaller round ones! And these even say "XS", awesome!

                          I think you need a new camera!

                          Seriously - looks good, just like mine. Had it running yet, I haven't - still waiting for tank to come back, Monday hopefully.
