We got a shiny pink thing in the Mail today for Aprils Mustang.

Care to guess what it was?



NO! Not a ***** Wagon sticker!


The new 10.5" HDX Ram Clutch we ordered.

Wouldn't that fall under a "used" intake?

And it's not even a clean weld job. A grinding wheel and powder coat (or even silver rattle can) would get it closer to a $500 intake (still not $850).

Exactly, or Refurb but not New.

Is it just me or do I see no internal signs of a real cut and weld when looking into the plenum?

You're right. I don't see the cuts to port the entire length of the upper intake's runners.

I suspected when I saw it that he was faking a cut and weld.


Picture #3 shows no signs of the cut or weld from the inside.
Picture #5 shows no signs from porting from the inside.
