He and his fanbois claim they make more power than any other solution out there, but the catch is you have to pay for a tune and or buy throttle bodies to take advantage of a 3" intake charge pipe. Congratulations, you get to spend $1800 on something that should have been no more than $600 for a new CAI. For that kind of money I would much rather get a new set of Stillen G3's, an oil cooler and upgrade my brake pads. Outside of the 370z world even $600 is a lot of money for something like a CAI.

He's also pushing people to tune their cars after just doing the CAI which i think most people on this forum know is pretty stupid...unless of course you got money burn. Even if it is just MAF scaling, you're paying the same amount you would for an actual tune!!!

He may be a nice guy, he may have a decent product and know how to tune...but he is pretty bad about being honest with the community about what it means when you buy a set of Admin Tuning intakes.


Pablo Escobar had money to burn. Literally. One night while running from the police he and his family found an abandoned cabin where they needed heat and he ended up burning $2 million in cash. Pablo Escobar had a enough money that he could burn $2 million cash every night for 41 years and he would still have money.

1) Monster cable
2) 5 hour energy
3) Tapout shirts
4) Beanie babies....
5) all fashion brands/fashion

All garbage, but people paid a HUGE markup for a "name" why? because most everyone in this world are followers, and buy parts/things not because of functionality, but more so because they want to LOOK or SOUND better/successful/faster/stronger etc.

It's sad really, because as soon as the "trend" or following shifts to a different product or fashion, all of a sudden those products are worth exactly nothing.

So, my advice: Don't be a follower, or learn how to sell to followers. Warren Buffet (I'm not a fan but I remember this quote) "I'm doing what the majority of people are not doing"
