I got the Flaming river set up....The cons are you dont have power steering so its a little hard to turn the wheel when your not moving but when you get going it not bad......Pros are you pick up a little HP and it looks cleaner under your hood...and you never have worry about PS fluid

less weight, slightly more hp, cleaner under the hood, and if your weak youll build a little muscle in the arms because its more work then power steering.
