I have professional products had no problems with install everythign went great although it might not be the best brand like soem say I would put it in the middle of all of them and for the money you pay you can't go wrong with nearly the same hp gains in the end. Just my .02

I've got a Professional Products intake and TB, ported (ground away any bumps and casting defects) and polished the living S#$T out of the inside. I installed it and wow, the difference was amazing! I'm sure I've got the HP gains of the Accufab at half the money. The TB works perfect, no idle hangs, no stiffness, For $225. for both pieces, it's a steal. You don't need a ton of money getting the best parts, use common sense and a little elbow grease. On a typical engine, port matching can gain you 5 hp. We did it all the time in the 70's. Get yourself a dremel or die grinder.
