i'm guessing you actually didn't even install it all. So instead of coming on here and telling us you couldn't figure it out, which would have been hilarious, you come up with this one day test/loss of low end story instead. Sorry, i'm not buying it.

And if i'm wrong about that, then it is just ridiculous that you only tried it for one day and returned it. What a waste of time. Why do you even bother doing things to your truck. Your never happy, and they never work out for you or meet some lofty expectation you seem to have.

Buy a supercharger. That might produce the results you are apparently expecting.

Honestly Reid, you hit it on the head. I did get it installed, but my s-bolt really sucked, and it was turning me off. I feared it'd snap on me and break off into the throttle body.

It was half *** bolted onto my TB, so the entire time I had a leak, and it just really pissed me off how unsmooth the process was going. I'm going to give it another stab tomorrow.

There's diagrams posted on here of how to bend the s-bolt. Follow that pattern, and it will be fine.

To install, put the base on first, then the filter, then the sbolt. The lid goes on last.

Face the s-bolt so the bend is toward the front of the truck.

When you put the lid on, if it doesn't line up just right, you need to rebend the bolt some.
