| I have sent a private message to the seller with no response? Are you guys getting them from someone else? I'd like to do real dyno tests on these before believing any "felt faster" comments. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to discredit any of you. I would just like to test it on my dyno. |

Nothing wrong with what others have tested or said, but I test everything myself. If there is something that I am going to recommend to someone out of my shop, its going to be because I have tested it and proved it. I wouldnt recommend something to someone based on what I read or what someone else tested?  |

| I do infact hear this new delicious sound. Kinda a low growl.
I had trouble not spinning my tires last night...yes it was raining but still.
This is an all around good mod feels good, sounds good is cheap and pretty easy to install. It is peppier all the way through the power band or me.
Pretty good Friday the 13th for mods.
Off topic but I also installed the JIC lower tie brace at the same time.
That thing rocks too. I should be getting my whitelines swaybar in early November. |

| Is there enough room to install this with the stock airbox, it should still show improvement with it as well, shouldn't it? |

| I don't have the stock air box on, but it should be easier with the stock than
a short ram or CAI. Both after markets use a bracket that needs to be slightly modified to get it mounted. |
