Default YUP cuz we'd know for sure it's quality, wanted internationally, and hand made one at a time.

unlike those "more bang for the buck" intakes. Plus then we'd be supporting one of our own community members who have contributed an infinite amount of his knowledge and experience. Glad to see you are finally understanding why we buy ModShack stuff!

Default Looks nice if you like CF. No name on the filter, so that is a shot in the dark. I bet Steve would

be happy to fit a K&amp;N if you bought it - cause that's the kind of service he gives (get it, turbott920?).

Default Out of curiousity, do you have a problem?

Will you not admit that:

A. There are a lot of knowledgeable people on this forum.

B. Steve has provided a wealth of information and guidance in the form of personal responses and publishing how-to-guides with step by step pictorial instructions. The majority of these have absolutely nothing to do with the products he sells.

C. You have absolutely no empirical data showing that Modshack products cause a detriment to performance. A lot of folks over at Vortex regurgitate this claim, but do not have actual experience with the products. They also always seem to fall flat on providing the proof they claim to have.

D. Steve does not actively promote his products as adding X amount of HP over stock. So I'm not sure why people attack his products, it's not like he has advertised something that he doesn't deliver.

E. Car gatherings are something everyone can appreciate.

Seriously, if you get some sort of enjoyment out of trying to rile up the crowd, don't expect to be helped when you need it. You might have already burned that bridge here, but I would consider the mature thing to do is quit with the childish antics and maybe try developing some products on your own.

Default Just for clarity's sake, I don't think he was bashing Steve's products,

Just the pricing--and then it turned dirty. At least from the threads I read...maybe I didn't read them all.

I'd rather have him clear it up, I would guess you missed some posts on AW and Vortex.
