I just got a PM form a shop that it has stock rods. He said for my goals would be enough but he agreed the CR WAY to low for my blower.

You are right but this one was 6k. To have them spec it out will cost much more. I guess they have a ton of these and just want to move them.

Well I'm good there then. haha, I can open mine up too.

I've never heard one in person. Only videos. They don't sound bad in videos from inside the car but outside the car, at least in the videos I've seen, I do not like it at all.
