Frank knows your problem before you do and fixes it before you even get to the shop. Thats how good he is.

**AAM High flow cats
**AAM Plenum spacer

Both products bought and installed at AAM and 4 years later still work great with no issues.


My only problem was my own fault for not researching first: found out after install that a plenum spacer on a rev-up by itself is rather useless.

The biggest problems out of AAM were customer service and there tuning.

And I dont mean customer service to get you to buy stuff I mean once you had problems and tried to get them to fix it.

For the most part noone that got JUST bolt on's had any problems.

best exhaust to touch GZILLA AAM 3 inch single! DAUM!

just it would support my 14 hour trips to st. louis so it had to go. I actually shed a tear twice...when I sold it...when the guy I sold it to said it got stolen from the shop that was putting it on.

maybe one day I will get another.

this has been going on for years and some of the post are legit. Most of these follower band wagon, fair weather fan z fools, just swing on nuts to be in the cool crowd.
