A few clips....

forgive my camera holding skills. I chose to focus on the road vs holding it steady when I recorded these.

Start up and drive clip (closed windows)

-Ignore the strange noises my camera picked up.. I have no idea where they came from...I don't have a radar or electronic device etc that makes those noises???

Another driving down the road clip (windows open this time)

I'm going to record some revup clips sometime tomorrow. Look for them soon

Shout out to the guys over at GRD (Genesis Racing Development here in Illinois) who took care of me with my HFC install yesterday afternoon! They answered all my questions and made the process easy

Nice man. So no CEL?

Also watch that slippery road there. Just don't want you to end up in parting out thread after crash.

Nope! No Check Engine Light warnings. I wanted folks to see the dash as well so they can verify this in my clips.

As for the road, that was my #1 priority. I made sure there were no icy roads where I was driving/filming. The streets are pretty dry around here

How much more interior volume do you think the HFCs added?

I'd say a few decibles or so. For the most part you're hearing my ztube and k&n filter in action when I get on the accelerator in those clips!

The HFCs sweeten up the sound tho! I love my Berks Skater!! They're great for the $$$

I hear a little " THUMP" sound, is that from your coilover when you go over small bump or uneven pament?

Actually both

The thumps are from my stock suspension and tire combo. Wish I had coilovers
