Sorry didnt have time to shoot a video for the corsa

I didnt notice any power gain and i know it wont cause i change only the last mufffler but i really like the sound. Might go with coustom y tube and high flow cat converters.

Yeah i agree with you that AFE might be the best CAI till now.

The only issue now is a TUNNER seems like we need to make a price for the guy who could crack the pcm.

A tuner is a definite must. With today's PCMs just buying a CAI and Cat-back is a waste of money without a tuner. The PCM will correct itself and after a few hundred miles will return any gains back to stock. With the 3.6 being the hot new chrysler engine, I can only assume their will be a tuner out by the end of the year......hopefully sooner.

Like the look of the diablo tuners but not informed of the differences behind all the manufacturers.

Default Bumpers: '11 vs '12

A different mod thought here, ....and a question. I have an '11 with aftermarket f/r bumpers and have just begun to consider in-trading-up to '12. And, I'd sure like to see if I can reuse both those bumpers on the '12...before I buy the JK.

I'm aware of the vacuum pump relo kit that's likely required for up front - and happy to do that.

But here's my question for you all, and where I need some advice...before I purchase a '12 -and spend yet more money .. for "2 more bumpers" -( wifey just loves me when I tell her these things) !!
Anyway, to be more certain on this issue, I went to 2 stealer-dealers recently to inquire about this. One of them said "neither front or rear bumpers would fit"; yet another one (in TN) said: .." the '11 & '12 are exactly the same and they have the same part number".( Should have measured mine vs. the new ones..but just didn't for some reason.)

I want to believe the 2nd dealer, and hope he's correct. If he is, then, ...wouldn't all-of-our aftermarket bumpers be "transferable" - from '07..on through ..to '12 (??) ...that is, after one's repositioned the vacuum pump? Unless the width of the frame rails have changed, ( I dunno)..then why wouldn't the 2nd guy be correct ? I need to convice the wife we can reuse f&r ..( b/c i want the '12) ...so please tell me I can reuse the f/r bumpers. Albeit, I'd love to have any of the new ones, like: AEV ... Exped. ...ORF.. and LoD! Thanks guys.

bumpers are completely transferable, once you have the said vacuum pump relo bracket

I understand completely. My 12 rolled off the truck and had about $7k in mods in the first 1000 miles
