To ?'s, one about FSTB, and one about CAI

Ok so i'm finally getting off my lazy *** and putting on my FSTB, after only 8 months of having it sit in my closet

So i'm wondering what the torque specs are for it. I'm taking it to my friends shop finally and were going to put it on and i don't know the specs.

And about the CAI, I'm undecided on WSP, or PR. The PR just looks built better but then again i'm not sure if it is. The main thing that bugs me is the filter on the WSP, it just doesn't looks safe !
hah
and also does the WSP come in just black?

Go to www.maximadriver.com to find the torque specs. Go to installation of FSTB. And as far as CAI's go with WSP, trust me it is the same as the PR with just a couple of different bends. But for a cheaper price, both will give you the same just depends on if you want to spend more.

ok
does the K&N filter help at all with the PR, or can you change the WSP, to a POP-charger

Thanks for the FSTB info.

CAI

Yes, you can convert our CAI to a pop charger type easily. Just remove the pipe that goes through the fender wall, and reattach the filter under the hood. Don't forget to plug the hole.
Dallas and I both feel K&N are over rated, but are a quality product. We may be offering them with our CAIs in the near future, for right now NO NAME brand is doing it.

guess i kind of phrased that wrong, i meant can you take the no name filter off and put on a K&N cone filter in the wheel well. But i've pretty much decided to go with WSP for everything. I will most likely order the Y-Pipe, Cat, and CAI tonight or tomorrow from you guys.

I was going to ask you though, how back ordered is the package with the Y, cat, and B-Pipe for a VG? i'm trying to decide if i want the B-Pipe or not, only thing i'm worried about is backpressure with my Glasspack.

to be honest i think the wsp filter is a better design than the K+n's filter,(even tho this isnt much of an difference) but if you look on their website, their cone filters have a arch (inverted cone, going inward , into the cone) thats a better design over the flat walled cone filter that K&N has, because that inward cone , helps with making it less turbulante when the air is coming it.. its hard to explain what im trying to say, but i just like that design better.
