I got the Roto fab I got from Ron installed. For my stock car I love it. Great sound and butt dyno does feel faster.

I wasn't saying you were dazzling anything or anyone ..
implying that the product you planned to use is possibly smoke .. mirrors.. and bullshit

But like anything .. my opinion..

Just installed mine this morning. Went for a quick 10 min drive locally. Definitely more supercharger whine seems like theirs a power increase didn't really open her up too too much.A little more responsive too. Fitment is fantastic. As for as that clamp that a lot of people are bitching about, I simply slowly worked and wiggled the tube out without even messing with the clamp... rooks.

You think reinstalling that fitting into the stock intake will be easy? THAT is where the problem likely lies....being able to do that without damaging it so that the dealership can tell. The "bitching" people do is because it would have been so simple/cheap for roto fab to provide a solution for this issue with their kit.

Im good there, my dealership is fine with anything as long as I dont open the motor up or tune it. Besides I am one of the few ppl that will actually go to court agaist the dealer to prove x part did y damage if I know it didnt......im petty like that!!

Did you mean go to court 'against' the dealer? If that's the case, unless you have something signed from the dealer you're pissing up a rope in a court of law. Trust me, that verbal commit won't me a thing when the cost of a crate LT4 (plus labor to install) is on the table- they WILL find a reason not to honor.

I would encourage you all to disregard any manufacturer claims and put more weight into the 3rd party testing. That is where our benefits really shine. Sure XYZ, Incorporared can claim 65 hp and use a 7" diameter MAF housing, but until their system is tested head-to head against ours, I would stick with the tried and true.
Do you have any data, in CFM, between your CAI and OEM? I love to see it.

If you guys are really worried about a tiny clamp get extras to keep on hand for trips back to the dealer etc. They're called oetiker clamps.
