Man was this thing a PITA to install. I had some major fitment issues. I also found out that my stock TIP wasn't even tightened down. I literally pulled out all the surrounding stuff, removed the nut, and the small hose and it just about FELL off. No effort at all was required. ****** Mazda!! Anyways. I haven't had a chance to really run this thing but initial findings are great. The car runs much smoother. My horrible pop and gurgle from the exhaust is gone ( I am assuming from the NON connected stock TIP). I don't really notice a power gain, but that doesn't mean it isn't there. The car seems to pull quicker and a bit harder. I need more time with it to really see if it makes that much of a difference. All in all...WORTH THE MONEY!!!!

Thanks to Ken for making a great product
 
So I've had a bit of time with the new TIP installed. I have noticed the much louder intake and turbo spool. It sounds like the turbos from the F-350's. I quite enjoy it. However, I haven't noticed as much of an increase as I was expecting. My car does run smoother, less gurgle and popping from the exhaust, and a little more responsive on the throttle. Yet I can't say there is a power increase. Would love access to a dyno to find out. Still...this thing is WELL WORTH the $100.

I have the same experience. The smoothness of throttle inputs and ability to engage turbo spool quicker is well worth the 100 bucks. I never considered much if any power when installing my TIP
 
Tips, arguably, do not add any more power. The spool time just endsup being quicker and the throttle more responsive

Eventually ill get one for myself. Maybe if I'm lucky enough to have someone selling theirs closeby

Just buy the PG TIP brand new for 99.95. You cant go wrong there.
 
Being as materialistic as I am, I still tend to be cheap and look for the bargains. Or I just don't buy at all and stay in my own little fantasy world where I'm rich and famous and don't give money to charities or family members
