I would be happy to elaborate
They are not my experiences. Just ones that make me cringe

First and foremost is the "take from Peter to pay Paul" business model
Most people call it a pyramid scheme


Then there are the actual products


Here are some photos of their "quality control"...

GT-R intake manifold with 95% blocked runners.

Also, the from what I can see, the insides weren't even cleaned up. There are left over aluminum flaps right by the intake inlets.







Not to mention these...

Cannot Recommend AAM Competition Anymore

Turbo oil drain problems w/AAM kit

Knock problems (boosted)

AAM fails to stand behind their own products

AAM Competition VQ37 Intake Manifold Pre-sale!!!
