Supreme Tool Inc. Gas powered valves are what you want if you are not running stock.

Cables should only run you about $50.00 each.

STM all the way. They are more money than the cables that is for sure. But, way better mid range. Very noticeable better mid range. The factory has the valves programmed to open way too late. There is power in there...Let it out!

Click to expand...

and not to mention often the benefit of having the valves open a few hundred rpms early often helps with that dreaded m mid range hot spot...
