They make decent power, but they shoved a 71mm in a stock housing. They're bad about surging, make sure the thrust is in good shape then run it.

IMO, for $2000 I'd buy a new one from Danville. But to each his own.

They sound cool, yeah. But for the money there are better options. Like a basic box stock s366. It won't make the crazy noises but it has more power potential and better boost:drive pressure ratios. I got under $1400 in my whole s472 setup....food for thought
