The Australian dollar uses the same symbol.

Looking good. I am very interested in what testing shows for these!

I'm not ignoring anyone, I apologize that you weren't picked to try these out. Not trying to be rude, but do you realize how many people jump at the chance for free stuff for "testing". If I just gave them to everyone that wanted to "test" them, I'd be in the poor house.

At least I'm supplying them for independent testing, as well as my own, rather that estimating a gain and sending them out the door. Rest assured, they will either show some kind of confirmed gain, or I won't sell them.

I think that's a pretty decent way to get customers

I'm not begging for free stuff dude, just some common courtesy.... How hard is it to reply to my PM with, "Sorry man, already have four people lined up, but I'll keep you updated on the progress and the gains and let you know if they end up for sale "

I mean really, it took me saying I was ignored for you to tell me this.....

I felt like this covered all of the pm's not getting a response back on the first page.

To anyone that is sad, or upset that they didn't get a response, I apologize.

That said, it is what is it. Lets try to keep the post on the exterminator topic.

Exterminator?? Guessing your phone or something autocorrected?

Actually I kind of like it.

Put this on and "exterminate" the competition.

Gotcha, appreciate this response. Hopefully they make some gains!

I'm thinking it would beat a fully bolted on LLT with headers and that would be awesome. 360 - 370 HP LFX perhaps?
Don't think we will see a N/A LFX with only bolt-ons with those numbers. I have just about every bolt on piece on mine and working on some tuning with Matt@FSP. We will see what my numbers are in a few more weeks on all motor.

I believe I'm in on the testing and thus far I have a few mods - CAI and ported throttle body. We'll see what kind of difference it makes!

Running a little behind schedule... The 1" Extendolators are being cut as I type this... As soon as hardware shows up for both the 1" and the 1/2" the test units will ship.

You have an automatic right...or a manual?

Matt will tell you that his dyno reads a tad lower than some other dynos out there, so that could sway the numbers a bit.

That said assuming the dyno reads out perfectly and the automatic has 20% loss (I actually feel like its may be even 21% loss), if you hit 285+ rwhp on the dyno with an auto, that means your cranking out roughly 360 at the crank.

Good luck!
