Im running one that I bought used , and like it. I had to do a lot of smoothing of sloppy castings but it seems to work just fine . I noticed more mid range power. Im also using a BBK 70 mm throttle body. I wish I would have got the polished one. Good luck

There have been lots of stories of the poor workmanship on the chinese intakes. Joe's was pretty bad. Mine was a polished version and it was OK- still needed some clean-up of casting lines in the ports. Matched w/ good heads they will make power. Just be prepared for some clean-up work, maybe a lot.

I used a file and some dremel tools on mine , finished with emery cloth , it took a couple a days before I was happy with it. Sorry I dont run a bottle, Im all throttle. C ya
