Hmmm.... I'm still tempted to get the GIAC and see what gains I can get out of it. US$795 is not that bad. But eventually, I will put the stock airbox back and use a BMC filter to see the...

Thoughts on aftermarket air filter kits...

Some of you would have read of my negative dyno experience after switching to a Evo Highflow intake. I've talked to several people locally to find out the reason. Finally, I got to speak to a rather...

Hmmmm... I may just call them to find out. Let's see.

Paypal buyer protection is not much of a use. Your case is similar to mine and you probably need to open a dispute under "Goods not received as described". Paypal will state that you'll get a...

Doesn't the Boxster uses the same hot wire concept for their MAF? I'm really not sure.

Some of you may have known that I'm using the Evo Highflow setup and experienced a drop in bhp/torque. A couple of reasons suggested by some are :

That's something to consider. My Dansk manifold already has a pre-drilled hole for the factory O2 sensor that came with 2002 and above cars. That'll save me the trouble of drilling and welding.
