Front is a lot firmer and the back set at 50% is firmer aswell.
I`ve got a sweeping corner near work and have been going around the same speed and have less if not any body roll.

VE V6 SIDI Growler CAI (2012) & Elite Clean Air Separator Installed 25-09-2016
After putting the growler in the stock intake growler to T/B was hard to get on.

So decided to get a custom pipe and fit the oil separator.
Separator and clean side PCV outlet plugged.

A bit of modding of the engine cover so it will fit not pretty.

Hurricane 3" cat back on 03-04-2017
Bit louder that the Xforce and not raspy.

Can`t hear a drone and I have a rumble on downshift.
It feels like it is flowing better.
I`m happy.

Had to get 2 post O2 sensors they couldn`t got the old ones out.
This can happen I was just unlucky.
Did the front 2 aswell.
Getting about 50klms more city driving 12L/100KMLS

And for my car the 4 O2 sensors are the same part number 12634064.

A woman 3 doors up said one day she just hears me about 5.30am going to work and their bedroom is in the front. So no problems.
I only go up the road about 1500rpm

The 2 intake pipes are different sizes so one had to have a spacer to go on the metal pipe.
The guy who made it is a great fabricator.
