thread on this here:

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

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.

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?

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

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:tup:

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

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.)

I guess Canada is different. Feel free to call manufacturers like INJEN or HKS or TAKEDA and you'll know what im talking about

6MT 05-31-2009 12:53 AM

I thought the good 'ol USA is where free-enterprise started. Thanks for the freindly back & forth though. I really will stop now.:icon17:

I personally prefer pm'ing the prices. Rule no. 1 Vendor classified rules:

Vendors/Sponsors usually give out prices via pm. NEVER post this price publicly. There is a reason it was sent via pm.

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?
