I'll be installing this in a month or so. Stand by for numbers. I would've hope for some official stats by now but this only shows how well AAM stands behind their products when they can't prove how well they perform.

AAM Competition - Nissan GT-R, 370Z Turbo Performance Specialists

If you look at the pictures its like the tenth one in.

not sure if posted but I was on there website and saw the dyno run. Looks good for boosted car's. Picks up a big part in the middle of the power band, but lose a little up top. what do you guys think?

Why would something that flows as well as they claim lose power up top?

Im curious to see if this was tuned or just slapped on. The graph doesn't look smooth at all.

Same on mine... Look inside by the throttle body openings, mine had some leftover casting crap in there (both sides).

Send it back & demand a refund.
What a POS.
What sort of Moron would send it out with a casting flaw such as that hole.
I'd be pissed too.

That's scary, is it all the way through? Clearly there is no quality control, as anyone would have seen that.

Either way, they are charging premium prices, and not delivering a premium product. It should arrive with a more finished look in my opinion. Even on the website pictures don't look much better than a rough casting.
