I know you'll argue this, but oh well lol.
Yep, that's a pet-peave of mine too..."ebay intakes" etc. EBAY DOESN'T MAKE INTAKES! lol.
you know me schmiddy, if a part costs more than another one but yields more power, however small the power gain is, i'll get it because i want the best one. and in intakes, when u're talking 3 or 4 hp difference on a part that you're lucky to get 8hp out of, that's a big difference. if a pipe and a filter make 3-4 and my V2 makes 6-8 that's twice the power for less than twice the cash, it was worth the money. and i agree with you on the "ebay intakes" thing. when people say "ebay intakes" i think about the generic backyard intake companies. i know ebay sells brand name stuff but the guy didn't ask about name brand stuff bought on ebay. he was talkin about cheap stuff.
