After waiting for them to come back into stock -Weistec

I have been waiting for the Weistech filters to come out of stock and they finally did. These arrived yesterday, will install tomorrow and drive it a bit and see if my butt feels anything, except maybe hurt from spending so much on some filters ROFL.

I have them. Great quality. Engine definitely breathing better, especially after secondary cat delete.

did the install and you can see the difference in the actual filter thickness. Car sounds a bit louder under the hood and maybe just maybe a bit more responsive. Friday the ECU goes off to EC

Let us know how the EC tune and it’s shipping and turn around go. I’m on the fence about the tune. Doubt I’d notice much difference on street driving .

EC - multiple times from/to CT. No drama and speedier than a pizza delivery.
Download and complete EC's form.
No need to remove the EC from it's base.
Put a piece of tape on the bottom of the ECU with your name, address, phone, model...just incase.
Pack it safely. UPS Store works wonders. Insure it for $1k, signature, receipt.
Mail on Monday, overnight with AM delivery; receive it back Wed, before 10:00AM.
2-minute reinstall.

And yes, you will absolutely notice the difference, even in your own driveway.
