So, not sure how many people are interested in this, but I feel obligated to disclose what I was told in order to save some people cash and time if they're waiting in this. I work near aam and have a close friend who works there. I saw this thread picking up popularity and decided to ask him about it and see if I can get the scoop.
He said the following and quote:
[The] manifold is some trash!!! ...[B]arely put any R&D into it and tried to rush it on the market. **** is actually losing HP...Hence why no dyno results were ever posted."
He's not a disgruntled employee and loves what he does. He has nothing but good things to say about other products offered by aam and isn't the type to lie or exaggerate when it comes to the aftermarket. I know aam doesn't have a great reputation but if he was ok with working for them and will vouch for their current work and employees (except the tuner....apparently there's a lot to be desired there), I'll let them turn a wrench on my car any day. Take it for what it is but with that opinion, I'd look elsewhere.
