Message	I just got my Apollo 3.5" core and will dyno my car once more next week when my tuner is up here. I will keep everyone posted on the results. I wont be freezing my intercooler so don't expect crazy #'s. :Again, not ALL people but most see that before anything else. If that's what people want to go for, slap on an FMIC, freeze it up and go to town. Pressure drop is a legitimate issue (among other things) and affects how the powerband is and how the car actually drives/boosts/etc. However, this is NOT to say they don't have their place. They sure as hell do...see some of the big HP cars we have out/coming? Some/most of them have them for good reason. I'm not talking about them, I'm talking about these close to stock people. Am I here to say DON'T do that to your Z and judge people? No. But posts like these totally miseducate people and new people think they are the best thing since sliced bread in ALL applications. I don't want that. :We're sounding like the Supra guys more and more every day! :)
