When in stock, I'd imagine fast delivery. Fit is absolutely fantastic. Once stock pipes are out, it's EASY to fit in. No boost creep with mine...no CEL.

I've got one. Fit and finish are good. I think the O2 sensor is lower than it needs to be though.

I was told it would take 2 weeks to get one and it took 5. Communication with Dan was poor, to say the least.

I'm surprised...I communicated with Dan several times when I was looking into CAI's. I started out PMing him and he gave me an email address that he said would be much quicker. I even received emails from him timestamped at 3:43 am. He was prompt to pick up the phone as well. Too bad to hear that your experience was not that good..I'd rate him as 'excellent'.

Yeah, I remember you. I got that time on Sunday. You should have been there, it was a MUCH better day.

I took my MBC off Saturday night and launched harder on Sunday and I ran 12s all day!

How'd you manage a 1.64 60'? Dump the clutch? 'cause REALLY fast slipping has gotten me low 1.7's but not a 1.6 yet.

Tach it up to 6k - 6.5k rpms and let the clutch out fast. Don't side-step the clutch, just let it up fast.

I get it up to that and let it out fast...you must let it out so fast it's on the verge of dumping it. I'll try to move faster.
