robinlsb Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I don't think that the Q was about hurting the motor. Will the intakes produce more HP--- NOT. So go for the bling if you so chose. Personally, I don't put parts on the car that do not produce results. Just old fashioned I guess. "Belief does not make truth. Evidence makes truth. And belief does not make evidence."

robinlsb Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Is that an RBS grill on your car lol Yup, and it is cut to pieces so that I can have driving lights. They won't fit in the stock grille! Bet I can see farther at night than any HID setup!!!!:p:p "Belief does not make truth. Evidence makes truth. And belief does not make evidence."

Jackie Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 If you got an AEM, as listed there, I can understand. But SPT parts won't void the warranty. That makes sense. I didn't actually know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
