Re:air bath / p-flo

["Patrick" <psherman@bigfoot.com>]

I have read this on-going thread on P-FLO SUCKS, Why would you want Hot air? All
I have to say who cares, who cares, who cares?. I sure don't live by EC or buy
based on there sole recommendations. What I wonder is what happens when the "I
HATE P-FLO Thread" finally dies off and someone wants to start the "WHY REPLACE
YOUR STOCK EXHAUST" or the "Your Suspension Sucks". I just wonder why everyone
still sells the P-FLO system if it is SO bad? I mean should they just rename it
to P-SOUND? IF they renamed it to P-Sound would people finally quit flaming
people over buying, or thinking to buy, or slamming everyone about having one?
Hell I have one, sure I probably lose Horsepower, Sure it sucks hot air 2 months
out of the year up here it's cold and rain.. I have an Airbath also, and I am
happy with it it's a trick mod, horsepower?.. I don't know if it helps or not, I
just tried it.. It also puts a little cash in a fellow list member.. 

Mods a Mod.. This, "pflo sucks so you are stupid for buying it" HELL!   It's
sounds like a damn Honda list.. At least post in favor of respecting each
other.. Shit.. We all Own Volkswagon that is selfs deserves the respect from
every member on this list.. 


Just my 2 cents.. 

Wow.. what was that all about.. No Personal Attacks are meant..

we all know that the p-flo sucks(more than hot air) and after reading
the feb 98 issue of EC, they finally agree. but one thing really bothers
me, why would someone spend $295 ($155 for p-flo & $140 for air bath)
for something like an open air filter that is equal or less than
factory? Let me quote EC, "This is a no brainer for anyone who has a
free flow air filter system: you need the air bath. Whether you have an
ABD Quickflow, Nospeeds P-flo or have just replaced the stock filter
assembly with a cone style filter that hangs out in the hot air, you
need the airbath to get back to stock horsepower. Your car may sound
faster with the trick filter, and looking under the hood may tell you
that it looks faster too. But one thing is for sure, if it is breathing
hot air, it ain't gonna be faster, no how, no way."  
Congrats on MidKnight for creating somewhat of a "fix" for those who
have the p-flo but i just don't see the point to having an open air
filter. if i read the horsepower charts correctly, even the combo loses
power. i've been vocal about my dislikes of nospeed products and have
said since day one that the p-flo sucks and is ridiculously over priced
and now EC has finally said so. i can't believe it.

just some thoughts i had. ok, my flame resistant suit is on. begin
flames now.
