$410... ouch! JWT popcharger @ $299. (FYI)

LOU@AMPLIFIED

That's full retail price, my price is much lower

Not trying to be pissy here, but... Others have advertised their actual prices right on this forum. In fact, if you look a few threads down in this category, you'll see the very Dealer I was talking about. He's advertising his actual price for all to see.

Why wouldn't you?

LOU@AMPLIFIED

Its because i wanted to give the best price to the forum members without breaking agreement with manufacturers regarding allowed prices posted on our website or forums. Unfortunately, i can not post the price i want to give to you guys

Hmmm... "agreements" (?) I should probably stop now.... but really?! Isn't this a free market? You're trying to compete with other suppliers, aren't you? I'm also in the re-sale parts business up here in Canada. Never had anything like an "agreement" to "bind" me from re-selling at my chosen price. It's what the market will bear (also called free-enterprise).

(Again, I'll stop now.)

these have reported high gains......someone got to bust this myth

LOU@AMPLIFIED

Yes I know. That's why I didn't post the claimed gains.LOL I will call them Monday to see if I can get some info in the dyno numbers.

thread on this here:
http://www.the370z.com/intake-exhaus...take-370z.html

It seems like people are hesitant to pick this up without an independent dyno, and now seeing the price, I would definitely need one!

frost

If these got over 12hp on an independent dyno, I'd buy right now.

LOU@AMPLIFIED

Most short rams on the VQ37 that some of my customers got about 8-12 whp. I think thats more realistic. I could be wrong. Hopefully i get a local customer who might want to volunteer for independent dyno.

I do know this from experiences from the G37 guys with intakes as there was a long debate there regarding intakes. The ECU needs to learn the new set up. If someone does any independent dyno, The ECU needs to be reset and at least a minimum of 8 dyno runs to get an accurate readout of the intakes

But the stillen short tubes, that look exactly like these only netted 2. I don't mean to sound like a douche, I just dont get what the big difference could be between the 2. Any thoughts?

LOU@AMPLIFIED

Looks might be similar but a lot of different aspects of an intake can actually make a difference in gains such as tube size and length, venturi/velocity stack design, filter size and flow measurements. I don't know the details of the long tubes but one thing i know for sure is they are still using oiled filters and so does JWT. Takeda pro dry filters are non oiled and open to debate, some swears that they are better. I know for sure that the dry filters are easier to clean and it takes less amount of time to dry than the oiled ones

Personally i just wished they made heat shields like they did for the 350z. Maybe i can convince them to make it as an option

Can you PM me a price shipped to 38017?

Thanks
