All I've got to say is WOW! Thanks SamboTT@bydesign! I got the 70mm catless Kline x and Cobb tune, Sam threw in the filter and free shipping! Packaged well and received within a few days. Install was good according to the local P shop. I went down picked it up, installed the filter, and tune. I only have 91 down here, so Sam advised me of some additional options. I mashed the throttle, on 91 pump, and I was gone! The guys at the local P shop loved the exhaust note, as did I! I put my faith in Sam when he recommended the 70mm Kline x and it's perfect. Slight slight drone at cruise speed, but nothing I can't make a phone call with. And, at wot it screams! Pretty quiet at idle. And the extra 80 hp ain't bad either! Intercoolers and plugs to follow! Along with one of everything performance! Lol! Great experience with SamboTT@bydesign and he wasn't shoving these parts down my throat like others, giving me the option to do it in stages with the same price. But, I got the package deal! SamboTT@bydesign has the knowledge, patience, and experience to help anyone! And, I had a lot of questions. Oh, and good price too! Thanks again SamboTT@bydesign!

Hey longboarder! Barely starting the build! Just the parts mentioned...Filter, Kline x, and Cobb tune! Starting with HP gains first! Then I'll move to the exterior/ interior.

There are a few of us in the Dallas area if that happens to be where you are and want to compare notes. Thumbs up for power before exterior looks

Thank you so much for that review bud. I appreciate you putting your faith in me and my recommendations. I'm Really glad you are loving it. Imagine what's going to happen when this crazy weather calms down and we do a tuneup/intercoolers! Stage two will give you another kick in the pants. This is a pretty aggressive exhaust configuration at 70mm with no cats. I'm glad it still cruises nicely.

Ready when you are for the next step

Thanks again for the nice words. Yeah I was a little worried on a tiptronic running our Kline 70mm and no cats. But still all good. I know with cats it doesn't drone. So to have a tiny bit and it took chronic cab works for me. I'm glad it hit the spot!
