Honesty you'd probably be better off going with a different filter and save yourself 20–30 dollars until they prove their filter is worth the premium.

I ordered mine. While ppl are arguing about getting numbers, I just ordered one.

I should be getting my car tuned in a couple of weeks with just the WORKS Drop In, MOTIV OP and FP.

I'll shime in with the baseline and after tune.

Yes, I posted that I may have the generic bolt-on muffler concept replicated at a local shop. I wasn't aware that you had copyright...

Isn't that the same design concept that Berk Technology sells to this community? Which seems more shady, a company using a design identical to another's, made to generate a profit, or the consumer who plans on having a one-off made for personal use only. Don' throw stones...

And shady means withholding or hiding information, or in your case, deterring the community from getting the objective test results it wants.. Shady is not: openly saying that I might have a local muffler shop replicate the design, (especially when the only motivation I had to try a local shop was the lack of quality in your design)...

Just curious, but why a dynapack?

And FWIW, I am (however, now I'm leaning toward was) still on the boat to go with your axle back, pending the results of your 'corrected jig'. But I'm beginning to see that you don't really stand by your products.

Hey, was any compensation offered to all the people who ordered your axle back and got a product that didn't fit as advertised? Considering they each had the same exact fitment issue, and that you admitted the fault was in the jig, it seems like the right thing to do, no?

He stated 10 HP at the flywheel. Which I'm sure he gets. But I think all drop in air filters will perform the same

Isn't their exhaust aluminized steel?

That information was not included in the item description.

JoeBoxer · 02-27-2013, 12:12 PM

Where were the fitment problems noted?

With the rust issues that have popped up with various exhausts on here I would go with something 304 ss. You get what you pay for.
