does this site have product reviews? I have been seeing "what is the best this, best that...". I always wonder about products too. If there is a review section where is it? If there isnt it should be made. just my $.02

we were going to, but it never happened.

product reviews involve spending money we don't have on parts, and then, installing, them, then taking it off and trying a new part.

maybe if a shop or something would like to sponsor that, we would

What about having the members do some. I know i have tried like 3 different short ram intakes on my sol and the AEM is by far the best.

Ok, quantified how? Opinions based on the butt dyno don't really help either. It's nice to hear input, but you can't really call that a decent comparison.

yeah. do you have a dyno slip proving the power? with the same other mods as the other 3 with their dynos?

as you can see, it gets expensive.

i have a "freeeway dyno". its a long, steep uphill stretch of freeway which never sees traffic. i measure the effectiveness of my mods with it. when my car was stock i could only manage 85-90mph up it, now with I/H/E i can go 105-110
