I've seen them and they leave alot of schlag(shit) on the insides of it....I would have somebody port/clean it up before you install it...take a look at the insides of it...

true. but they're expensive as hell for the power they make.

IMO...it looks different, thats it. you could make as much/more power on a 306 with a much cheaper intake

I also like the fact that you do not need to take off your upper to service/change your injectors....lots of room under it..

if you're looking for something different, buy a GT40 upper paint it the color of your car and bolt it to your lower.

don't know your engine combo but on a average 30x with average aftermarket heads and cam, most all the intakes make with in a few h/p #s of each other anyhow.

you'll be "different" and 500 ahead
