I'm not sure.... If I recall doesn't M2 intake use stock fittings? I think these should work.. Call Gotham and ask them.. 817-788-8726

I'll send you a pm about the GB.

Your thread was probably deleted because you invoked the G name G-O-T-H-A-M. Just a guess.

Sorry moron, we have not banned that name. It was closed because it turned into a GB. If this thread turns into one it will also be deleted.

There are many companies that make hardpipes for the FD. They are all made to work with the stock intake. If its an aftermarket intake that fits in the stock location, then yes the pipes will work.

Its just this kind of defensive, uncalled for response that makes you look like ****.
Why did you even have to get into it with the Gotham guys. I recall the original thread in the Texas section well. You jumped in with a similar response to this reply and started world war 3. IMO.

Edit:I really take offense to some guy who runs a small time wholesale business in calling me names. Who in the hell do you think you are?

Damn... Jason, are you going to take that..


Jason,.. I really didn't mean to start a group buy.. as you might of read in the other thread that got deleted.. it started off as a question about an auction on eby.... Just when the seller pissed me off with his response to my email.. i got little "out of control"..... So, now i'm happy that he might have 20+ intakes that might take lot longer for him to sell or might not able to sell them at all.. Should of agreed from the beginning and not become too greedy.

Its your uncalled for assumption that I deleted it because it had something to do with GR. Thats what led to my response. Next time think before you post.

For your info I run the forum, if you dont like it go somewhere else.

Thats cool, I dont have a problem you posting a good deal on those. Its just a problem if it turns into a GB. If the person making them wants to email me about doing a GB that is fine.

Jason, I said that it was "just a guess" as to why the thread was removed.

Since you run the forum, please start acting like someone in authority. Calling people names is hardly what I would expect form someone who ownes/runs the forum. Also...considering that I've been a customer of yours, the name calling further insults me. I think your the one who needs to think before they post.

No, you are right I shouldnt have jumped on you like that. Im just tired of people assuming things when they are not true.

OK, truce.
I think its pretty cool that you do let people post good deals. You do have a the right (and responsibilty) to keep the forum from being used by other for profit enterprises that don't pay to support it. I do very much enjoy the information presented herin. Side note: just got the dual gauge pod in the mail (from Jason) with the Delfi water temp gauge. The boost gauge must be on backorder. Another store said that these gauges were unavailable. I'm not naming names.

herblenny...sorry to hijack the thread.

I have seen the hard pipe kit, it looks well made. I'm just not sure about the $$, and the heat soak issue concerns me. Its feels like 110 ouside today.

Jason,

Once again, Sorry about the last thread.. i was slightly concerned and Some members of this forum, did mention that it might get shut down because it was turning into GB.. Sorry.. and also thank you for understanding..

Cpa7man.. I do understand the heat seeking issue.. Some had mentioned about that on the last thread.. I guess you could get it wrapped.. but that will loose the reason of getting aluminum pipes.. I have my T-body, UIM, Efini y, cross tube and Jason's Great deal on his Greddy front mount pipes are polished.. So, that was one of the main reason I wanted to go with hard pipes..

Also, by most, hard pipe will have better flow then the stock pipes.. As someone told me (spoautos), its better flow.. since it doesn't have that accordian thing in the middle..

I might be wrong though...
