    Sorry Chris if I offended you or any of the other MODS, I just don't know why all the sudden we're being called out for something we proved almost a year ago, Wheelife again I think the best position for you and your company is to try and get some independant testing done, and prove your results, that seemed to work for us, good luck with your new intake.

    Thanks,
    Mike

    I agree... All of the speculation will be put to rest after that is done. In the meantime, enjoy the video!!!! :tooth:

    IMHO, I think it's sad the a vendor can come on here and attack members and other supporting vendors and not get spanked for it. :bottom: I would think that vendors would be held to an even higher standard then us "arm chair quarterbacks". Come on?? :viking:

    What video?? LOL, it sounded good though. I am not sure how it compares though as I have never let someone drive mine while I was not in it. I would like to hear mine someday though. Borla-S and Kooks sure sound sweet from the inside though. :king:

    That's a bold statement. My DUB cost me 12/17rw SAE vs. the BWoody with double digit gains (in favor of the BWoody) across the board. I could never see myself going back even though it did sound more "menacing". Anyway, I prefer the somewhat more tame pseudo blower whistle the Woody provides.

    On with the thread...

    If you're really that confident, send them out, STFU and wait for the results--just as BWoody did.

    LOL, mine :whistle: too. Every now and then if the wind is right, I can catch it over the headers and exhaust.

    Guys as before on this same topic it has turned south and we definately do not want Vendors going at it as that is not what they are here for. Opinions are appreciated on here but we have killed this subject, it is my suggestion that we no longer have discussions about this particular intake until they have had time to finish their product. I understand everyones passion for performance parts and the knowledge of whats best for what vehicle but again it is going nowhere. THIS ENDS NOW!!!!

    Very mature response, lets discuss one thing before I get deeper into this. Does it really matter if the aluminum tube is from China, America, or Korea? Please tell me what does the quality of aluminum affect on a simple intake. Does it for some "really important" reason need to be Aircraft grade billet aluminum to allow air into the engine?? Please intake genius...inform me???

    Now to my next topic.....99% of the intakes in this world are made from aluminum tubing and ARE "painted with a sticker on them" or powder coated. So tell me are all these other intake builders just completely lost in life and have no idea what they are doing?? Oh and im sorry do you have numbers to back the statement of you saying, your intake is better than the "chinese aluminum with a sticker slapped on it" intake. Oh and since I am sure you will try and dig up some information to prove me wrong with that, Ill save you the troubles. Because if you come back with a dyno sheet that shows 3 more HP. Do you really think I am honestly going to care?? Remember 5000 pound vehicle, anything below 10 HP is just a number on your dyno sheet.

    My third topic. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE AN INTAKE?? You continue to say you are doing all this testing...Well I thought you perfected the Airhammer and the Ramhammer. Did you not learn anything while producing them?? Could you not take all that testing you had done prior on those intakes and threw it right into the mix when building the "thorhammer??" You dont have to try an buffalo me, saying you are doing all this testing. I have built and designed many things in my life that will make your "American" made intake look like something a 4th grader made for show and tell. So enough with the BS, you have had months to make, and "test" this intake. There are 7 days in a week and 30 days in a month. I think you have had plenty of time. Either build it or stop bashing, and insulting. You welcome is getting worn out fast...

    As Wade said...Can we please limit the discussion on this thread to topic.

    If you would like discuss this further with Hammer Automotive, please do it through PM or some other private means.

    Thank You.

    Man that other thread got locked :cry2:

    I'm sure that if you were to follow HammerAutomotive for the last year or so, you would know these answers, like on LXF where they keep updates and let us know whats up. They were dragged on this forum thanks to the questions and bickering, and I would not expect them to paste thier hundreds of pages of updates, tests, stories, and so forth.

    In an honest and hopefully 'nice' response, I know the answers to your questions through following the business' progression over the last several months. Its hard to explain, but Scott is really meticulous with his creations, and only the best leaves his shop. He wants the customer to be happy and had to find a new steel supplier to better suite his quality standards and price range. He has also invented the new Hammer HO which is a whole new market for him. Hes busy and products just take time. I guess if people dont mind waiting, there is no harm. If they dont want an injection molded piece of plastic, or tubing thats attached with elbows, then the Hammer is the right intake for them. The Hammer is constructed of steel or aluminum and has been designed for optimum airflow, which is a fairly hard shape to get perfect with welds and bends.

    bmartin had an LX intake on his truck in that video i believe? It sounds great man.

    That's right. Thanks.

    The sound really does add an intimidation factor. :guns:

    I understand there are meticulous people in this world, as I am one of them. I have been around racing my entire life, I have been involved in every type of racing from the racing in your back yard to NASCAR. Now with that said, I have created and made things out of metal that only people can dream of. So is it hard to shape metal perfect?? Well that depends on how good you are...yes it is an art, but difficult? For me no, for others, well yes. What I am saying, is that if I were in the business of intakes and I stated numerous times to people that I was the best. I would get out and do whatever it took to get it done and get the facts out there. I am a person that likes to prove myself, and I will do whatever it takes to do so. Now could I build you an intake in one day. Your damn right I could, would it be as affective hp wise as the Hammer? I dunno? NEVER DONE IT. Basically I just want to see this intake, with reputable numbers. I truly dont think that is too much to ask....

    Wheelife, now you did it.
    Your attacking me when all i stated was the FACTS.
    What sage advice have i thrown out??? None!
    I had stated that i had high hopes for this product. After that attack you can stick it and best believe i sure as hell WILL NOT be buying your intake even IF it did make more power, which it didn't. Thanks for making my decision that much easier! No, really.

    Your company HAS NOT given any( accurate) test results concerning the Jeep SRT and all you have done is drag your feet with all this blah blah we are testing now, results soon, we are trying to find a good supplier, good products take time crap.

    Another thing that gets to me is that when you tested it on Chase's jeep that you didn't even begin to inform people about the OUTRAGEOUS 40ftlb gain. You know why that was don't you? Maybe you don't?

    Something else to ponder, is why you haven't sent your intake out for an unbiased test? You have been called out to do so. Yet, nada.

    YOU have attacked people who have doubts about your product yet have done nothing to prove your products worth as far as the Jeep is concernd.

    As far as you "arm chair" comment, thanks bud, way to handle yourself.

    Another thing about me not having done my research, did you not read the many unhappy customers with your product who stated that they were dissappointed with it too?? Yup, no research there huh? I guess you like to leave those ones out.

    One last thing. I'd bet all of your other tests had the hoods open. Not exactly real world eh? Close the hood and let it suck in the HOT underhood air and then report back with your results!

    You as a vendor have insulted me as a consumer. Like i stated before i had high hopes for this product but after this my money will definately be going somewhere else. :thumb2:
