I like how you put the weather stripping around the cut out. It gives it a nice finished look.

i think if you get the regular asm plate that is not cut at all, and get the proper pattern in it with no gap, that would look hotter.
Very nice meth. Originally I had planned on getting the ASM Version 1 and cut it but ASM discontinued it so my wife ordered v2 for me instead but BP sent her v3.

My initial impressions... wow. Its louder, pulls much harder in mid-range RPM's compared to my old AEM

Why did you not add that you feel the AMS strub bar so much better thant the old one

Don't get me wrong, the parts look good but I would rather say:" I wanted a red strut bar and since I am a fan of J's, I asked my wife to get me the intake because I like the looks of it as well"

Nice parts anyway, you just cracked me up with your review and ultra-sensitive butt dyno of yours

To me and my ultra sensitive butt dyno, yes it pulls much harder.

My wife has noticed a big difference as well.
