Just incase you aren't aware , you'll need a tune if you get the plates. I got one of the first sets Steeda released and they installed them , so I don't know what all was needed. I do know you need a good tune by some one who knows what they're doing or the computer won't like it ...

Yes I'm aware of the tune, I have a great tuner near me, not worried about that. Now Gaskets I'm worried about, well not really just would like to know.

There are Butterfly valves that restrict air flow until a certain rpm. I think most of the time they are almost completley closed. charge motion plates don't have any butterfly valves so there is no airflow restriction.

No other parts needed, besides the tune. Got a set coming!

geez, really ?? does it act like a vacuum secondary and open at a certain load on the motor ?? It's a smog thing isn't it.

What are the expected increases for the Charge Motion plates and what do they do to your warranty ??
