Anyone heard of or have experience with it?

price seems kind of high for the gains "stated", especially considering the alternative piggy back tunes that are out there



***I'm still waiting for news on/about the RPI/PC 535i flash....

For the lowly 530 I can get 5hp and 4ft/lbs for a mere $499? Won't a K&N filter upgrade top that?
