The FP covers for the stock IX turbo are awesome. If you are on pump gas, I think you will see some more power/torque. If you are on a maxed out e85/race gas setup, your gains will be very small. The main reason to buy this thing is for the sound.

I have seen dyno sheets where this thing helps out in the mid/top range, however on my car running e85 I saw 0 gains. I did get a kick *** Anit surge cover sound and I can run a much larger intake.

Here is a video with my exhaust and the FP Cover, not sure if you can hear the cover very much.

Thanks I already paid for it so ill most likely throw it on, I dont plan or running race gas or e85 yet so I guess this will do to get a few more hp out of this turbo

It sounds pretty dope and I would say just a tad better throttle(spool) response.
