I choose ETS. Michael is always really helpful when ever I stop by. IMO they're the best.

I have the AGP 3.5 intercooler and absolutely love it but both AMS and ETS are outstanding product! I have the ETS intake and V2 Extreme and the quality of both is amazing!

Really can't go wrong with either. However, it's hard to beat ETS for price/quality

Youll get different opinions, but when I upgrade, I'm going 4" without a doubt.

Would anyone say I should do the licp as well. It would cost me a bit more but if it's worth it I'll do it. I already have the K&N intake with the uicp.

I would say it's not worth it unless it's cheap. The stock one is good sized and made with aluminum sections. The stress on the pipe should be lower I think since it is after the intercooler and the volume of air should be lower vs. the hot side pipe.

If u upgrade the ic u should upgrade the piping....upper and lower...stock pipes have rubber joints or connections and flex under boost. Also if u want to stay "legal" get a catted test pipe. U will make a bit less power but will be all legal..ETS is the way to go!!!!!!!

Great question.
Does anyone know who is the licensed ETS shop in California?

Are you looking for a shop to install the parts or someone to supply the parts?

Thanks,
Robert

Hi Robert,
I'm just starting out and would appreciate information on who and where can do it all. The only place close to me is Cobb tuning and they use AMS. .. everyone is saying to go with ETS. I figure you guys know what's best.
Thanks Robert.
Victor

I buy directly from ETS and any reputable shop can install your parts. There are very good "how-to's" to help you install and save money.

Great advice, plus doing it yourself will give you a chance to learn more about your car. And it feels really good when you look at your ride and can say " I did that".
