BHAF is LOUD

Postby nooblet » Mon Feb 18, 2008 2:17 pm

Is it supposed to be this loud? I don't mind it, I just want to make sure I didn't mess something up. It sounds like my ac/heater blower motor is on full blast at about 1.5k rpms :shock:

I guess since its not in a nifty little plastic cover you can hear the suction more?

Did You Do a Smokey or Stock Pot-Type mount?

That's probably why you'd want something like a Smokey mount.

It's something moving 100 times as much air as you AC/ heater blower motor and it's moving at 150k rpms. :D

Usually you have to get rid of the muffler so you can hear the exhaust over the engine! :D

What kind of filter is this everyone keeps calling a BHAF? Who makes it? Anybody got a picture comparing the two?

Big Honkin' Air Filter. Just a big filter you put on to get more air flow. There are numbers on the site somewheres, NAPA, Fleetguard, and a few others. ;)
