You'll want to spend some time cleaning a detailing the engine bay. Looks like the previous owner didn't pay it much attention. Once cleaned up, it's going to look NICE!

It was before I brought it home. I towed it back home 6 hours. Hit some back dirt roads along the way and it was all covered in dust by the time I made it home and it went all in the engine bay as well.

Those dusty back roads can do that. Once cleaned, it's easier keeping it clean. Just avoid any more dusty roads! LOL.

Hard to do that around where I live way back in the woods. Just got to wash it every week. Hopefully this ceramic coating stuff chemical guys will help me out alot.

Congrats and welcome to the terminator family! I have a stock blower with 2.76 pulley. She pushes 470hp to the wheels on a good day. She screams pretty good too. Love it! I don’t want to lose that whine either but I do want to upgrade for more hp. I been trying to upload a short video of the whine from my iPhone, but can’t figure out how to. The site won’t let me. Not sure what to do about it.

Congrats I picked up my 04 last summer. I always knew I wanted to make more power and if the stock eaton ever came off it was not going to be going back on. I'll be getting mine back very soon with a VMP Gen3R upgrade with a 3.3 pulley making 18psi. I've seen videos of it screaming just as much as my 2.76 pullied eaton did. But I'll be the final judge of that once I get the car back. Even if it does not whine quite as much I'm going to enjoy the added power a lot more, and to eat a few un suspecting cars

Try uploading the video to Youtube, then post the link to your video here.
