throttle response is the response you get by pushing down on your gas pedal. what happens when you push down your "gas" pedal, is you open your throttle (a valve like thing) and let air in. the ecu or whatever calculates the ratio of fuel to mix with the air, and procedes to mix it. an increased throttle response means your gas pedal will feel more sensitive basically, which to most people is an advantage.

AEMand K&N are just cashing in on their names now.
aem and k&n prices have remained consistant. they haven't gone up. other brands are just lower. according to your logic though, same could be said about companies like brembo, tial, greddy,ect... their stuff is expensive, but hey, its good quality and they've been around forever. you can't expect a new company to put their prices up there with other big names; they'll get stompped out.

Elaborate I Will First off when we talk price it depends which country we are buying in and what the market demands are in that region. No offence to brand names such as AEM or K&N they are fantastic products and they should be for the price you pay. I'm just saying for the price and quality its tough to match and if you have been to the Simota website and have read the 7 page catalogue which explains the product well, you can download in PDF format at...... http://www.simota.com/video.php Along with the other information I have received from the factory which just so happens to be 40mins from my place, I was very impressed with what Simota brought to the table. Also was surprised to find out that the big names you know and love are made at the same factories, and by that I mean a lot of “Big Brands” you know about through marketing there is an exact copy of that under another name and sold cheaper. People the technology is here and it’s not very hard to offer the same product under a different name. Thanks for your time guys.
Patented means nothing where I live, If i wanted to take an AEM v2 style intake to a factory and get them to reproduce it exactly the same and change the v2 systems name and sell it who would stop me? The laws in the U.S are strict and if you tried to do something like that trouble would come knocking sooner or later and you'd be hung upside down by your balls but the rest of the world doesn't work like that its amazing how much something is worth just on the branding. Don't forget when you buy big brands your also paying for their advertising. I can’t believe it's not butter!!

lmfao. i don't care where you are, but there's no way in hell a person can just walk into a factory and tell them to make something. even if your friend owned a factory, they wouldn't be able to just take a v2 from your hand and copy the damn thing. we're not talking about kinkos dude. factories don't just stick something in a machine and pump out thousands of copies. we're talking 3d tangible things. you know, things that you can touch? and another thing, one can attempt to make a v2, but, there's little chance it'll be identical.
