both are reputable products, but those gains are very optimistic. any gains promised by n/a bolt-ons tend to be alittle inflated.

I can only assume that with the Alphawerks there's going to be a CEL. Has anyone actually had success with the "anti-fowler" devices? Could you just mod the 2nd 02 with a 1 or 2-ohm series resistor?

"Poo?"

/me puts credit card back in pocket

Define poo? I was literally going to order this tonight. Is it the headers or the CAI?

im actually going to get that setup when i get my tc. ive done a ton of reasearch and they seem to be the best combo out there as far as reliability and power gains (check the stickies in drivetrain and power).

as far as sounding like "poo" (which i think is a little exaggerated) thats the header. it will be a little raspy w/o any resonaters installed. i personally don't mind the sound at all and think it sounds pretty cool. goto the link to read more and hear for yourself... https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=88729
