makes me wish i bought an aftermarket intake manifold when i had my nitrous mishap! sucks spending 400 on a stock unit, then another 700 on this one, but if the numbers are there, then im in. im in the progress of building a high comparison na setup, so im waiting on the na numbers to show up
Wow if this seriously puts down 25whp on an N/A setup I would throw down eventually. Shoot get a piggyback and tune it with headers, pulleys, intake, exhaust, should be nice numbers. Of course this is all speculation until proven. But hey I can dream!!

I've had experience with both companies and needless to say Descendant racing is the only way to go! Everything I've bought from them has been grade A and the service is great. Rob actually knows what he's talking about and Descendant uses the product they sell. And as far as the intake manifold goes stick with descendant or you be very disappointed, trust me. Dyno's don't mean everything.

Yes a dyno is nice but I was talking about the quality of the part. Something can give you a hp and tq gain but if the quality is junk then do you really want to put it on your car? Thats all I was saying.

If the part doesn't do anything then there's no point in buying it in the first place.

Anyone can build a quality piece of ****.. in fact I produced one today.. but I doubt it'll make any HP on anyones car 
Unless we can utilize the methane..
I'm in for some dyno numbers with a full detail of the car's mods.
