At idle, it sounds like any Titan with exhaust.

Some light throttle acceleration. Still no hood. Redneck style FTW.

:poke: @XJared- Do you know if the AEM Series 2 Honda box can be used for the VK56DE, there's one for $650 locally that I think I might be able to get for a little less. I would have PM'd but not enough posts on this forum to use the function yet :crazy: [email protected]

I'm using a series 1 Honda box, I don't think there are enough internal differences that would keep the series 2 from using the same setup that I am.
