SECOND: Totally backwards! The ALTA Foam Filters trap smaller particles, vs. the K&N style filters. So better filtration, better protection of your engine, supercharger and power gains! Cleaning is easy, and doesn't require lengthy drying time like K&N style. You will be VERY pleased with your choice!
THIRD: Please let me know if I can help with this or any other concerns. Thanks again!

Also ordered the lower control arms, sway bar, stubby antenna, filter cleaning kit, etc.... that 10% off had me clicking and clicking.
Next up are Alta sway bar endlinks (front and rear), M7 strut tower brace, Alta rear brace, and probably some turbo tube stuff. Keep up the good work!

Awesome Adam. Thanks for the info. My car has 150 miles on it - just making sure.

I just installed my prosport boost gauge last week, its driving me nuts. It will not stop rattling. I finally figured out what exactly was causing the noise. the silver push button for the peak is hitting off the lens. it has just enough movement to contact the edges of the hole in the lens that it passes through. Is this a common issue? also, one of the plugs in the back either has a short, or simply not making good contact with plug-in on the gauge. The slightest movement sets if off and the needle blasts to the peak and alarms because it senses its not connected. i jiggle the plug and it'll eventually return to normal. Do i have a bad gauge?

Sorry you are having issues. On the silver button, there are some remedies for that, but if the connections are having an issue the solution to the first is mute.
NOT a common problem. While I appreciate the post here, a quick call or e-mail to us and we would have had this solved! PLEASE PM me your contact information, inv# etc. so we can get the ball rolling on a solution tomorrow.
Thanks again for choosing ALTA!

Greetings.
I just ordered a set of Kong Feather 17"s from you folks for my 2009 MCS. I really hate the runflats that the car came with so I'm replacing wheels and tires. What tires do you recommend for a quiet ride that will still stick to the road like glue? If they have anything you would recommend, I'd really like to stay with Les Schwab for their excellent service.

PSRS question
i'm about to install these. my question is about alignment of the bushings in the 45deg position. opt2 recommends lowering the rear of the control arm for anti-lift. what if i raised the rear? this would (since my car is lowered) bring the control arms closer to level when looking from the front of the car, which would help roll angle in turns. my car is very stiff already and i don't think i need anti-lift anyway.
thoughts?

Does the gauge pod come with just one pod, or two?
It says at the top dual 52-60mm, but in the included items it says "gauge pod" (singular)
Thanks!
