Before the cooler no point in making the cooler cool the air just for you to dump it. Rather let the cooler has that milisecond to cool down.

and it sounds way better before the cooler too.

a much harder blow - and i'm sure you'll all agree that a stronger blow is better than a weaker blow!!!! 8) 8) 8)

i like that...

hidden behind the bumper, so it will make a loud noise but remain unseen.

the sleeper approach - nice!

Agree and to import the HKS works out really expensive, the GReddy is relly good quality and to my opinion you got better back-up than HKS.
