I drilled all the way through with a 1/2 inch bit for the sensor. It's the two mounting screws he's talking about. I didn't drill for the screws, I used drywall screws cut to about 1" long so they didn't go all the way through.

As far as warranty goes, I would just re'install the stock intake before going to the dealer. It might take 30 mins. or so.

 

What are you guys attaching the pipe, elbow and filter assembly to besides the turbo. Doesn't it need some braceing or support?

 

Mines not mounted to anything yet, it does not really put any stress on the tube from what I can tell.

I have not done anything with my mount because I am still working on a box of some sort. I don't want to close it off to much because I don't want to lose any of that sweet whistle.
So instead of a full box I think I will do a heat shield and a cold air hose.


As far as warranty goes it all depends on your dealer some care some don't... I just take mine off because I don't want to hear them (dealer) complain about how they had to work around it or take it off to get to the oil filter, it takes maybe 10 min's to reinstall the stock air box.
and gives the dealer nothing to complain about.

The air filter came today, still waiting for the other parts

 

Yea, my filter came pretty quick but it took about an extra week to get the pipe and clamps

Just think though !!!!!

 

I Know I know I know.....AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....Got my TST installed, and I need some more air!!!!!!! (and a clutch, hehehehehe )

 

53 ****** check you PM's

 

OK guys, got the rest of the parts today. Wil be doing the install this weekend. I may have to wait until Monday, as all I have is a Mig Gun. My buddy has a Tig at his shop, and will have him weld up some bungs for me on Monday

 

Man!, they where slow getting you your stuff
Make sure you post up when your done.

I still need to work on my box design, but I have been way to busy lately.

 

It is just the "I have bad luck onshipping, and will ALWAYS take longer than expected to get something to me other than bills, which arrive EARLY syndrome"

 

Hey,

53 ****** and Dixie Chopper, check your PM's!!

 

Got her done, this thing is SWEET!!!! Love the whistle. I am getting some air flow now fellows. Need the clutch so I can put down some serious numbers. I think I should be in the 500/900 range by now, will see......

 

U gotta love this place!!!

 

You took my idea!!!!! LMAO!!!! Well just, got it done before me! At least I know it will work and I'm going to do it soon! I have a K&N round filter about 12" long or so my bud gave me so I'm gonna experiment!

 

Yeah, can not say if I picked up some power (probaly not, but maybe a TAD) but the whistle alone was worth mod, and then when you pop the hood, and see that BHAF, hahahahahahahahaahaaha..........Makes me feel like a RICER Well, at least I put a hurtin' on a ricer and Gasser Chevy 2500, and the poor stock Cummins (or at least I HOPE it was stock ) did not have a chance
