When we road tuned it afterwards, we got 31.5 psi which is definitely making more power.

The whisper looks stock, awesome awesome build quality to. The sound is very quiet, near silent cruising with the windows up and down. hard acceleration is a very refined boxer sound but still very quiet, it basically sounds like the car was factory designed to sound that way..like audible like a sports car but not loud enough for people to assume its aftermarket. My roomate in college had the Whisper on his 07.

Quiet = sound of slow. I gave up on that idea a while ago.

APS 3.5" TBE FTW.

You don't live in Fairfax County, the land of exhaust tickets.

This car is a dd? Why not buy a bigger/louder exhaust and when you get pulled over, swap back to the SPT and pay the $10 fine? Do you have emissions? If you get pulled over are you screwed due to all of the other mods? I'm just thinking out loud, not very productively I'll admit...

FYI, an exhaust ticket here is $75 + 62 fees. I also really don't want to open up the box on the other mods issues. Besides, even with the SPT my car is louder than most.

I think your car is quieter than my car.

I have stock TD04 turbo with Invidia V2 DP matted to SPT Cat-back.



Seriously yours sounds quieter when I was at the track

Fast and quiet is the look I'm going for.

Went to the track, and blew the coupler off the turbo on my shift into 4th.

wow... Tapout. This project is just spiraling out of control. The mod bug has sank its sharp fangs into your jugular(sp?). Good luck and very impressive numbers.

I installed the pump and got the stock tank set up yesterday. I will be working on it in my spare time this week, and hopefully finishing it by next weekend. I am also installing all of the amps/sub box as well. The box is done, and I just need a couple 0 gauge distribution blocks to do the power for the amps.
