Just got mine sent out to me "THANKS NICK" and it looks amazing.. I am going to sleep with it tonight and pop it on tomorrow night. Anyway, you EL owners, where did you get the rubber to fit it up to the throtle boady as well as the rubber bend ?

I have an oval throttle body shape on my EF. The 3" by 3" pipe works a treat. I got mine from Repco, they sell various sizes, for $10.00. A bit expensive but at least I have one now.

Yeah I agree with the extra noise from under the engine bay. Coupled with a good zorst and headers, it makes the Falcons growl which puts a big smile on my dial! Thanks FTG Auto Salvage! :D

Mine defenitly sounds better, even out the exhaust, could be just me but i think it's got a bit more power down low too, notice something different this moringing anyway. Might just paint the original bolts now. Also i just got my 85mm hose from clark rubber, worked a treat. Cheers
