    I’ll be the third or fourth one to recommend Dynomax super turbos Those should sound Really smooth with a turbocharger only thing is you have to make sure you get the biggest one that will fit. Also. The off set /off set configuration is the best flowing one as it has the curved deflectors...

    Vortech V3 Air Leak

    I’d mix up some dish soap and water in spray bottle, soak up all suspicious areas then start car up and look for the leak. It should be pretty obvious with the soap bubbles foaming from leak area. Also, if your using “T bolt” clamps on hoses or couplers they can sometimes be more prone to...
