im wondering what the technical reason is for my wizaired being extremely loud when i just start my car and its idling. then when i drive it down the street it all of a sudden gets quiet at a certain point, then quiets down to almost nothing even when i idle again... I don't know the scientific reason why but it's normal.

Got to ask but what inlet size on a 3" pvc intake for a 9" cone? Or is there only one size and I'm just brain dead right now?

Hello, If you are ordering a filter, you will ask for a 9" cone with a 4" connector. The size of the filter is referring to the length, not the connector size. There is also a 7" filter available in cone. The connector size also comes in 3.5" IIRC, in both sizes. This is one square MM in the 3" pipe - ( ) This is one square MM in the filter - (X) If the filter were only 3" in diameter, you wouldn't be able to draw much air through it....The stock filter has much more area then a 3" circle, and it doesn't flow as well as some people like. With the restriction of the filter, you need to compensate by allowing more area. Later now, Clint

A downpipe or the PCM is good.
You can go either with a DHP or Intense PCM. About 60% or so favor DHP based on tons of threads from here and ClubGP.

yeah, you'll need to get a 3" D/P on your list soon. If you're going to swap out your pulley, or if you already did, you'll want a D/P.

Yeah, I think most here run the I-PCM. I had a minor issue with mine when I first got it. Intense sent me a new one UPS next day.
Zull, when you install your new PCM you may notice the car runs a little rough, and a little harder to start. This is normal. It will clear up within a day or so.
