DO YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT OTHER CARS ARE CAPABLE OF GETTING THAT KIND OF
POWER MOST HONDA'S AND ACURA'S AND IMPORT CARS THAT HAVE A HIGH RPM REDLINE
.. THE V6 HONDA ACCORD GOT 18.7HP @6500 RPM,A 94-01 INTEGRA LS/GS/RS
NON-VTECH GOT 9.1HP@4250RPM (STICK SHIFT),HONDA S200 GOT 9.5HP@8500RPM,IF
YOU DONT THINK THAT THESE GAINS ARE POSSIBIBLE THEN READ IMPORT TUNER,SUPER
STREET, AND IMPORT MAGAZINES, AND CHECK OUT THE OFFICIAL AEM WEBSITE FOR
APPLICATIONS, PRICES, AND DYNO SHEETS.FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE NOT INFORMED
ABOUT CARS AND SHIT LIKE THAT ,WELL, YOU MIGHT WANT TO RESEARCH YOUR ANSWERS
AND INFO FIRST BEFORE EXPRESSING YOUR 2 CENTS.
P.S. AND FOR THE RECORD THE V2 IS UNLIKE ANYOTHER INTAKE BECAUSE IT USES A
DUAL CHAMBER INTAKE PIPE TO CREATE MULTIPLE FREQUENCIE SOUND WAVES WHICH IS
THE REASON THE GAINS ARE SO HIGH.
-"DEFEAT"
FOR EVERY WINNER, THERE ARE DOZENS OF LOSERS.
ODDS ARE YOU'RE ONE OF THEM.
