I have the silver REM Power Tube with custom graphics on it.

 

SCHWING!!!!!!!!

 

Looks Good!!!!!

 

LOOKING GOOD
two thumbs up,
I may have to get one of those after I re-do my Ram Air

 

Is that engine really supercharged?

Looks good dude

 

Lookin awsome!!!

 

While it does look very sharp, Iam still concerned about removing the flex that the factory rubber boot allows.
With an aftermarket airbox that mounts solid, the factory boots allows the motor to flex over, with the solid REM piece, I wonder what would give first?

 

Flex schmex........I did it and it worked just fine.

LightningToGo,

Looks great buddy

Soap,

I have the same concerns as FastGator, doesn't it need to flex some? I know you said you haven't had any problems, and I believe you, but it seems like there has to be some "give" somewhere. Do you think the "give" would be at the end of the filter/airbox at the fender? If so, there would probably never be any problems arise from that?

I know this, your engine compartment is awesome!

I think what soap is saying, its not his problem anymore

 

Tim,

Originally I also thought the same thing as you and Gator. However after I installed everything I did have someone rev the motor at idle to see the movement. Now I know the motor moves more when actually under load (like launching at the track), but I probably made 2 dozen passes with that setup and never had 1 problem. And I always had my nose in the engine compartment

Sooooooooooooooo......................
When did you have time to wash your truck all the time

 

Spent some time on the phone today with Paul@ REM. Very nice fella and he took the time to answer alot of question that I had

After I told him I wanted the Power pipe and had a credit card ready to order...........

He told me He DOESN'T reccomend installing his power pipe on an mounted airbox, as the motor needs to flex. He also told me he has many customers who run the power pipe with a solid mounted airbox and report NO PROBLEMS. So its really up to each owner to decide if he/she wants to take the chance.

Anybody guess what Iam going to do

 

nice George, good job buddy ...much better looking than the REM sticker I usually see on those tubes

 

guess its gonna be one less visit to the strip joint this week Bruce..
