Default Never mind - removed due to negative replies

For years I've been a participating member of this forum and never thought my posting about a product I bought and don't need any more would generate such pointed and negative replies. Why even waste your time replying if you don't have a question or are interested?

As for claims - I simply copied and credited Fabspeed. Attached is the Dyno run they have posted on their site. No, I don't work for them, am not a customer of theirs, never been in contact with them. I picked this up from another respected RennLister many months ago and I don't need this because I went in another direction based on the rest of my modification program.

From Fabspeed website:

honestly, there are alot of people that still buy this part and although your comments to this post are funny I still think that someone might be helped and get the part for cheaper here.
Alot of people would rather spend a 100 bucks and get the part rather than try to make it.

- 997 Cold Air Kit gives +10HP and better throttle response.
- 20% more COLD AIR airflow from outside the engine compartment. More airflow= more power and improved sports car sound! 997 cars with stock mufflers and our MAXFLO Cold Air intake upgrade will have slightly enhanced sound from their exhaust system from adding ONLY the airintake to any 997 with stock mufflers.
- Complies with Porsche factory warranty.
- Simple direct replacement BOLT-ON upgrade for all 997 factory Porsche air boxes and works the BEST with an optional BMC F1 air filter.

Let me know...

Do you work for these people? Want to send along the dyno numbers for us showing and proving the 10hp gain?

This is all so much crap.
