There is 1 video on youtube, mrbgray30, truck has borla xr-1 in video, all other videos are magnaflow muffler.

The TB's are known to create driveability issues, but to me it sounded like a big vaccumm leak you had.

I don't think 92 is too big... I have been running one on a TBSS intake with no issues at all.
I think it's these wacky intakes not sealing...

Twolow- did you try to torque the lower half of the shell down first and then install the upper half? When I called fast that's what they recommended to me when I called about my intake. There was a slight gap the size of a business card.

Yup I torqued the upper half to the lower half before I installed it on the truck then put the intake on the truck and torqued it down to the cylinder heads just like the directions say to do.

I also applied small amount of silicone to the back rear section Like the directions say to do.

Don't know how that's possible since there's no way to get to the three rear bolts once it's on the truck.
