Does anyone have any experience with this piece. It sounds good to me for but I've never heard of it before. Click on the link and then scroll down to the VR Velocity stack.

i've seen it on TV before about a month ago. forgot what show it was. might of been HP TV on the spike channel (TNN). i thought about it when i saw it, but forgot it was around until you said something. now that you triggered my memory, i am going to have to buy it.

looks like it would be a mod that would save you the time polishing the inside of the TB, but of course you would save $$$ using the dremel.

a couple of guys tried it and they had the UPD intake and it would not stay in the throttle body. kept falling out. i think pretty much everybody else let it die out. not really worth the money, spend that forty bucks on something more usefull. or keep the money and add more money to it.

there was just a thread in the car forums about these things being so poorly made that it didnt fit in the TB right.

i would borrow someones dremel and just do it myself vs pay for that. i think one person said they picked up a slight mileage gain but that was at driving grandma style or something. do some homework on a p&p tb and do that instead.
