Default varaam stacks

I was wondering, has anyone tried the v stacks. Or is it just another paper weight like the throttle body spacer. Althogh this thing wouldn't even work as a paper weight.

I saw a thread on this a while back and no one really gave a concrete answer. I have been wondring the same thing ever since. I know there is a sponsor who sells this. Maybe he will chime in.

No, not the Velocity Stack question! There has been alot of debate on this product. I've been running one in my Silverado for awhile. Throttle response improved along with gas mileage ( better gas mileage in a truck). I've seen a solid .75 MPG improvement. This is in a truck that usually only see 8-9 MPG. Some guys have seen up to 1.5 MPG improvement. Your not going to see alot for a top end horsepower improvement. It's supposed to be good for an additional 2-3 peak horsepower.

In Texas every Horse counts. For 29 dollars 2-5 horses is not bad, a harley beat me by half a truck legnth maybe with those horses i should catch up or beat him.

Every Texan should own more than 295 Horses.
