Hey 96817isf,

I've responded to every email in my inbox, what email address are you sending from and to?
This way I can try and search it in our system asap.

Thanks,
VJ

Your absolutely right. If a company has time to post they have time to reply to emails. There is probably a good explanation to why the email didn't get replied to. I checked all the PM's and he was responded to in a timely manner asking him to send an email so we can send him the CC form. I also checked VJs inbox and everything in his inbox has been respond to. We have contacted the member to see if maybe his email went into the junk mail box but without knowing from who the email is coming from it is very difficult.

I would like to point out though that this member did get a reply to his PM and after not getting a reply to his email automatically comes on a thread to say his emails was not responded to. A pm to check if we got the email would be a more appropriate approach to the situation and a bit more proactive.

Default RMI Scoops

Update: after receiving two identical scoops I requested another one for the drivers side which had more holes to accommodate the hood latch. I received one for each side and they were wrapped in a protective clear film....nice upgrade!!!
Thanks Again RMI.....installing them this weekend and changing the spark plugs to E3's!! Hoping to get a combined hp increase of maybe 5-6 hp. Gotta find it in every direction. Who knows....maybe it will be more when we see the dyno numbers. I can feel it with just one scoop installed so i know it is bringing something to the table. Maybe my car is more sensitive to the fact since I had the intake manifold and throttle body ported and polished. I'm telling you.....better performance. I can see it will shift to a higher gear under normal driving like it is breathing better. Subtle difference, but that's what I expected.....I recommend them.

If you can feel even 10whp at the 330whp-ish stock level you have the most acute sensitivity of any human I've ever met. Usually when ~5-10whp is felt at the 300+whp level it's based on noise more than anything.

I don't doubt your gains based on the extra porting but do feel it based on this mod is not something I can accept. We still don't have dynos from the manuf which to me is a great concern.
