Energy Halo?



http://www.phase2motortrend.com/prod...enrbrz2-gm.htm

Stumbled across this thing this morning, and couldn't find much information on it.

Anyone running this? Bologna?

Boast +7-8rwhp , a little steep at $100 but someone has gotta be willing to throw that extra dough.

I'm not looking to purchase my interest was just peaked

Lol that's just a velocity stack. I've seen them used for ITB setups mostly.

It might make that claim if you have it pocking out of your hood with no filter

I got this, honestly felt no difference. Dyno graphs in some other threads show a +1hp gain.

They make a very definite difference that you can feel.










You feel your bank account get $100 poorer; they feel theirs get $100 richer.

How on earth can you patent a velocity stack strapped to your throttle body?

And what is a dyno graph doing a loop-the-loop supposed to prove?

My car is the 176.978 hp dyno. If you search you can see my review. It muted the throttle response and felt slightly smoother on my butt dyno. I ran it on and off for about two months and then left it off. I prefer the throttle response over any perceived power gain.

If anyone is interested to buy it for cheap and try it for themselves, I can look for it... pm me.

I'd buy it just to make that cute curly cue in my dyno graph

I refute that statement.
I've never shoved a cactus up my ass but I'm willing to bet it would hurt.
