Looks very nice! I like the h2 CAI. Cant you tell me what diam the pipe is? Im running a 96mm tb and a 102mm maf. Wasn't sure if it would work without different sized couplers.

thanks

The end @ the TB is 3.5" and the end at filter is 3". I screwed up the first time I ordered the couplers and assumed they were the same dia. But nope, they are different.

Drew I think we discussed it before but I forget what all was said.

I think I might just ceramic coat the headers myself using some air dry ceramic coating. But what all will I need, just a gun? If that's the case I'm sure I can find one for cheap

A HVLP will be your best best. Can pick up one for prob $50 or so that would do the job. Besides that, just need the coating. I used an oven to bake mine but they also make the air dry. Cant tell ya how well it holds up though so you're on your own on that one. ha

I have driven the truck around a few times and drove it to work today. Its running great but when I get on it hard there is a lot of wheel hop... Im going to have to see what the deal is. I have the exact same tire and drop as my black truck and it doesnt do it at all. Only difference is my black one has air shocks whereas this one has Summit drop shocks. So that may be the case. I also am going to check the pinion angle as well to make sure its where it needs to be. I can tell its going to be a blast to drive though!
