Exactly. If AMS spent a little time on our forum their products would still be considered best of the very best. Either way OP, you can't go wrong. I just shelled out the extra cash on the AMS because I knew at the time it was the best of the very best and personally I think it looks a lot better. I also run an AMS fuel rail and will have their intake manifold very soon, I like to keep most of my parts from them but again wouldn't hesitate on ETS. I can't waaaait to get the ETS short route uicp.

I can't speak much about AMS as I only have one of their parts (balance shift delete) and I also agree with RichieVegasIX and PatricksEvilEvo as far as needing a better presence here. I highly highly recommend ETS though. Michael and the ETS crew has been nothing but awesome. I have have an ETS 4 incher and one of their full twin scroll T4 turbo kits on my car along with their upper and lower pipping and the fit and finish is amazing. They answered all my questions very quickly, even the long drawn out ones before I purchased anything from them. I do only have one complaint... They are on the west coast making ship times longer to me on the east coast ha!

We are definitely still here to back up our products and the results speak for themselves. I personal still spend a decent amount of time on this board sending PMs and answering them daily on AMS product.

It is true that we don't have the same presence here that we use to but we are still making and selling many Evo 8/9/X products daily. We are also here to serve the community and answer any questions that you may have.

Both companies are Great either one you pick would work, Personally I've used ETS products on both my car's. They've been really helpful & backed up every single thing they sell!

& consider what brand intake/uicp/licp etc your going to go with its best to make sure you find a complete setup you like from one company

i got the ets intercooler, had it made with a garrett core. In my opinion it is the best one you can get for the price.

Hahaha.. Thanks man. That was Robert. He is one of our new sales guys. The gun metal GT-R has a kit on it capable of putting down over 1350whp and a 4.1L stroker. It's ready to have fun as well. The Supra did put down 1000whp through a 4L80E automatic transmission. We are prepping the silver one now for an even bigger build. The Evo's are at the other shop right now.. we just don't have the room here We are full manufacturing as you can see haha. 15 guys in the shop getting busy.

for sure, I like what I saw. my mr is missing 6th right now... stupid synchro so im looking to get that fixed first then comes your guy's goodies. though it needs an exhaust baaaaad so might have to move the money over for your exhaust. I was really blown away at the quality especially the evo x down pipe. it looked really good. seems like a great laid back shop with quality in mind. I cant wait and admittedly my wife cannot wait to start throwing your catalog at our car. again thanks for the walk through, Im in hopes to swing by again soon. maybe a trip back out to get the exhaust.

You do 2 minutes of research and anyone will find that Injen piping (for the evos at least) suck.
