Interesting sound. Nice video. Definitely shows off the interior lighting.

Some of it. I'm going to use a stronger camera mount tomorrow and get some daylight shots.  Hopefully some will be in focus also! lol!

It wasn't ment to make you climax! I was simply posting it for Sunny Gator's benefit to let him know what it sounds like to have the GMPP Performance Intake.

And yes, there was traffic.  At the beginning of the video, you can see that I pulled out behind a moving car.

Thanks I have never noticed that before, I though it was just analog.

Thanks, Def!  I'm guess that little "chirp" sound is the turkey gobble - blow off valve coming back through the performance air intake....I'm gonna have to think about it.  I don't hate it, but I'm not sure I want to hear it all the time.  Regardless THANKS!

You don't hear it under normal driving conditions, only when you're getting into the gas and shifting hard...
