    What kind of BOV are you running on your engine

    Hard to explain, have a recording but does not appear I can post on the forum. I emailed the seller, sent them the recording, gonna see about returning it but we will see. It's useless to me the way it is. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What kind of BOV are you running on your engine

    Got my answer, it’s the gfb valves, put stock back on and no longer get the noise, very disappointing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What kind of BOV are you running on your engine

    I added this: GFB Diverter valves Sounds fine until every once in a while under heavy load it makes a sound I’m not a fan of, thinking it’s the amount of air being forced back in to intakes. I have a sound clip but no clue how to post the video? Can I take the return piping off, cap the ends...

    Black Friday Sale! BIG MOUTH Ram Air - Velossa Tech Design

    Rev, I installed them and glad I did, specially after seeing the snorkel factory ducts. I can feel a slight increase in responsiveness at high speed but would not worry about hp here. The snorkle ducts take are indirectly as it churns through the grill and engine, these take it from outside with...

    Who is considering purchasing a KIA for the first time because of the Stinger?

    You can get very good gas mileage out of this car: Above is two trips I took. I also spent three days of city driving in eco (Charlotte NC) to and from work and averaged 24.9. I normally average 16-19 though as I have too much fun in sport mode with my throttle response chip:) Sent from my...

    Headliner crackle?

    You should notice if you just push the button to raise the back of the sunroof up the noise goes away, that's because the piece around the sunroof is no longer in direct contact with the piece around the car. If this works than you know without a doubt that is your issue. Sent from my iPhone...

    Headliner crackle?

    Chek12 It's an issue with the hard rubber pieces, when your cover is open but the sunroof closed the flex in the car causes the pieces to make noise. You can buy some rubber lub(silicone based, not petroleum) apply it to the rubber around the top. That worked for me. You can also have your...

    You can also search for auto wrap companies in your area, I was quoted $375 to do the interior. I still have the doors and the silver strip across the front dash to do, will post when that is complete. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What Did You Do With Your Stinger Today?

    Pchek, I took out the entire console and took all the pieces apart to make sure I wrapped around edges. I have done it before without taking it all apart, it can still look good but the time required to take your console apart vs trying to wrap intact will be the same or longer to wrap in place...
