ya, instructions are straight forward, put it on piece py piece. one thing i over looked was that it comes with an allen key to tighten your hose clamps. i also had 1 extra washer. after install my idle seriously is at about 300 - 500 rpm. so the engine will die down then you'll hear the thing suck up some air then engine will gain more rpm. but i also have headers , so u may see that. put when i sharply step the gas you can hear a quick suck of air. nothing real cool but you can hear it.

So, you mean the Typhoon IS noisy. I can stand a little noise, I just want to know what I'm getting into. When I was young, like most of you seem to be, I put an Abarth muffler on my Porsche. I t looked great with 4 pipes and it sounded great around town, but the drone on the highway was a bummer.
