Like most things in life, Brand name plays a big roll and carries a price tag itself. Arguing against that is pointless.
My wife wants a $2000 Louis Vuitton purse, which I'll buy her next week(and it'll make her extremely happy and I hope she will smile when i tell her I want to buy a GTR lol). Would there be a point in explaining to her to buy a Walmart brand for $30? I mean, its made of leather too, has zippers and carries her wallet and makeup.
I agree not every chic can afford a $2k purse but almost all of them want one.

PS Smoky was at Import Reactor in Houston last week. If anyone really wanted to know about the intakes, they could have come and asked in person. I appreciate a healthy debate on the forums but what would be the point of an intake shootout (besides didnt Baker Nissan do this already?). Besides Top Secret being a more prestigious brand than Injen, Stillen etc, their engineering skills/experience is greater. I dont think a couple of HP gains will swing buyers one way or another. Of course not, this is just an intake. People will buy what they like/can afford regardless of the results of the intake comparison.
The main issue here is price, not HP gains.
