Probably. But I wouldn't. Your chip is taking care of the injector pressure and timing anyway. Also, ESPECIALLY with the Bullydog 150, that programming is going to push your system to its limit anyway.

The 5.6k mod is excellent for people hot-rodding on a minimal budget. You're Bullydog goes way beyond that.

The Factory Tech Accumulator is Factory Tech's shift kit setup. It costs a lot more than a Sonnax valve and spring kit. Factory Tech claims some serious wear advantages to their unit. I don't know, yet. I only have about 20k miles on it. I do know that it works GREAT, as does a Sonnax valve and spring kit.

I love my 5" exhaust. Yes, it has a muffler. How does it sound? Hmm. From outside it sounds great, deep and powerful, with the turbo very audible through the exhaust. From inside, with windows up, it sounds almost stock. With the driver's window down, it sounds great! Someone said that the 5" is more prone to droning than the 4", but I don't notice enough droning to be a problem.

With the passenger window down, I hear a lot of exhaust flutter (common to V8s with turbos) that reflects off cars, curbs, etc. It is kind of wierd, because the flutter is there, but not really that noticeable from the outside, but the flutter is what echos and comes back through the passenger window.

Also, with different tuning, the flutter changes. It is most noticeable with stock tune, least noticeable with the Edge 'race' tune.

One other thing about the 5", I LOVE the way it looks.
