Mr. Frankencar Does It Again...

Well I just finished meeting with Steve, had the intake installed and all I have to say is WOW...Thanks very much for all the help and in making a great intake. It was easy to install, took like 10 mins and it really sounds great and my butt dyno says even more increase in power. This truly is one of, if not the best mod out there for the $...Thanks again for everything and I reccomend this to anyone out there looking for a quality product

Nothing you can do to your car will make it sound like a Corvette.

It sounds like a big bore V8 when you give it a little gas. My fiance's uncle was heavily into the muscle car scene when he was younger and he loves the way in sounds when you lay into it. He even says it sounds like a v8.
