    Lots.
    So amid all the BS of this thread, has this product been proven to increase power without screwing with the engine (AFR, etc.)?

    No, speculation based on a similar product produced by Non-Stop Tuning a while back. NST no longer makes theirs.

    It's unlikely that slightly longer intake runners can alter the AF ratio, and the idea is based on the sound principle that longer runners lower the torque peak rpms. But as long as people are willing to pay money for something before it has actually been produced and without being offered any proof of its usefulness...

    ...there is no need to provide any. ;)

    Pressies?!

    After reading all the info on them, and taking into account a few people on this forum who have knowledge of internal combustion engines that rivals God; and having them speaking in favour of these. Some times ya just got to take a chance.

    I have no problem with how others freely choose to spend their own money. :) Plus, it's only a minimal risk. I was only commenting on the odd behavior of spending money for a product before it is actually made and without any proof that it actually works.

    Now that is truly an act of great faith. ;)

    Who knew die hard Atheists were capable of it?

    Besides, the NSR one has documented proof. Not a lot, but lets face it. I could spend $250 worse ways. :D

    A 3,400+ dyno run is totally meaningless. :p

    You can't prove the 0-3399RPM range isn't off the fuckin' hook! :p

    Bottom line is guys I have been producing these for two and a half years for the Nissan crowd and they have been doing really well all with positive results. The obvious choice was to see if it would work on Toyota vehicles as there are lots of people that drive Toyotas. Toyotas are a big modding crowd so if this part worked on this vehicle it would be a great add-on. I did not mean to string this thread on so long however I didn't have a lot of choice. Back when I was looking into starting this I was unemployed and had no job therefore I had lots of time. I just didn't have the money to do much about it. I just recently started working for a company about a year ago,and I am one of three IT guys in a company of 900 employees. Now I have more money to start some of these projects, however I'm limited on the amount of time that I have to spend on them. I also have been working with a different CNC shop so getting things rolling with them took time. I hope that you guys find them an awesome add on to your truck as I love the one that is on mine. However, if for whatever reason you guys think they don't work and are a waste then I won't continue to produce them. I am NOT here to con anyone, I'm merely here trying to further the modding community for which I enjoy. I do still fully intend on getting more Dynos run. Just trying to get the time. I was going to get them run before producing and selling, however you guys startingbuying them up so I had to quick get in gear and have them made. Thousands of people spend money every year on CAI’s, exhausts and programmers. This intake manifold Spacer is equal to, or better than most gains people see with a lot of other mods, however people have no problem spending tons of money on them. Even TBS get bought every year though the general community knows they don’t work on our FI vehicles. As one person pointed out Toyota's engineers spent a lot more time refining the Toyota engine, therefore I'm sure the gains won't be as significant as it was on the Nissan however I do feel there are still gains to be had.

    Thanks guys!
