Ooooh, I like the felt. Wrapped it yourself?
Yeah I had some felt left over that I got on Amazon few years ago . I cut out some stencils out of paper for the sides and bottom.
Then started with the bottom and worked around. I was thinking about doing a single piece but it would have been impossible to put in. The felt was really easy to work with , I did have to cut small squares for the top corners to finish it of.
I would recommend peeling part of the backing line it up with a corner and then pull back the rest. Also make sure to cut the felt a bit longer so it can overlap on the edges.This also made the fit more snug.
I'm really happy the way it turned out, consider that this was the first time I did this.

What Would Glenn Danzig Do
As promised here's my review on the BSH and the Neuspeed Throttle pipes. Haven't been around much lately, got a promotion at work and no longer have the time to check the forums during the day, and working 10 hour days with my 2 hour commute now.

Today I opened a package I got this week for the start of track season............first I replaced and updated my track stickers for the new tracks I ran last year. Starting my second row!! My goal is to fill the window. LOL





And new magnetic numbers, all official and professional, no more boring static cling numbers only.



Love it, I put the track decals from the tracks I've ran at on mine too. Would like to get some magnetic numbers too eventually. So much easier than taping them on

:sneaky:Found out (after an extensive search) it's not my rms that's leaking.. Yeah!!

It's the upper timing chain cover gasket and the pcv hose o-ring.

So whew, but awwwwwww :oops:

My upper timing cover seal made me think my RMS and oil pan were leaking. That one's a tricky sumbitch.

Dropped car off to have:

Rear passenger dust shield and wheel hub/bearing replaced.

Front grill stripes vinyl wrapped due to fading.

3M film applied to my newer Bi-xenon LED headlights that I meant to do 2 years ago when I updated them to the 2012 style.

But....what if the pcv fails? Or does this bypass the valve? Lol
This uses the stock PCV. When you're driving your car hard you build up pressure in the crank case which is released through the PCV. The PCV then recirculates that pressurized air into your Intake Manifold. That air contains a mix of fuel, oil and water that gets deposited on the backs of your Intake valves.

This catch can system reroutes that path so instead of depositing the gook on your valves it deposits it in the catch can.

If the PCV fails, it fails and you build up crank case pressure. This catchcan doesn't stop that.
