Sounds good on the surface.

But I suspect that you would be obligated to allow them to use your car for promotional purposes.

Personally I would be afraid that the car would end up on one of the Spike TV Powerblock shows. Which means they would be beating the pig snot out of your car.

Thanks for posting this Chris. Interesting to say the least.

I can't help but think the worst when it comes to "free" stuff that comes with a lot of legal fine print.

"...we reserve the right to repeatedly crash your car into a brick wall to test how well our mufflers hold up in an accident..."

That's the kind of thing I'd be expecting. Sorry.

Magnaflow isn't a sponsor of MCF is it? Oops!

I'm sure everything would be okay.

ohhhh, dude you just dug up a BAD memory!! give you a little story here, i used to have a ford contour.(i loved that car, and thinking about getting another one in the future) but, i took it into a shop to have the steering rack replaced. ohhhh, man, i went to the town where the shop was, just to do some shopping or whatever. i saw that SOB ripping around in MY car. seriously just pushing it as far as it could go. that thing wasnt near stock either, it was a fast little bugger. phewww was i po'd. and phewww did they get an ear full. man i forgot about this for about a year now. grrrrrrrrrrr!!
i cant stand to even think about someone racing around in my car, the though gets my heart racing you know??

I think that is currently how they are doing testing at Toyota for the gas pedal issue

A lot of times K&N does the same thing for vehicles they haven't made an intake for yet.
