    Factory Alarm

    Going from 3 Bolt to 4 bolt

    Any real drawbacks going from a 3 bolt to 4 bolt using the adaptor flange? I have some 3 bolt TA headers installed, and was looking to go to a Precision 5831 but see the only come in 4 or 5 bolt. My other option I guess would be to go with a Turbonetics Cheetah, which seem to be a lot of 3 bolt.
