yeah, this is true, but there are cases like mine for example. I've done i/h/e and i really don't plan to do much more than that. Not because I don't want to, but because I can't afford to. It may be true that amateurs like me are just using bolt-ons, but that doesnt mean we don't want a well-engineering product that provides the best performance possible. I'm not saying I would upgrade from the AEM CAI I have now. But had the V2 been available and proved to be even 3 or 4 whp better when i bought mine, I probably would have shelled out for it because it was the best.
