I'm giving away my VE Clubby mufflers atm. I created a thread with a whole bunch of free VE stuff but it's gone. NFI why - it didn't break any rules and there's no dedicated section for giving away stuff. Will address that with the mods tomorrow.

because it wasnt in the trading section. regardless of whether its free or not, it still needs to go in the for sale areas. nothing to discuss.

I read the rules - there's nothing about giving away stuff. Putting it in the Classifieds section would be completely ridiculous because people may want stuff cause it's free but wouldn't want it if it wasnt and therefore won't check the classified section of the forum.

I'll put it in my sig next week. There is NO rule that specifically says I can't by the way.

Pretty sure Monaro327 tried an OTR and lost 5kw compared to the Airhammer.

I would hazzard a guess and say that might have come down to the tune or OTR design, some are allot worse then others.

That's the Airhammer yeah?
Can't see how that improves on standard.

OTR's work allot better, its been proven over and over again.

A clean filter in the standard airbox is the next best.

The normally would, given the location of the throttle body in a NA application.

However given the angle of the throttle body, distance to the front radiator support, length of MAF and MAF sensitivity OTR's on commodores running alloytecs (especially smaller VZ's), OTR's don't seem to work all that well in these applications. Every OTR is different however, however there are some resulting floating around the net to suggest that something like an air hammer setup on a VE alloytec is the way to go.
