So its safe to say you have 80-100 more HP but on a prepped surface you were only able to get a 10.8? Aren't turbos the most efficient regardless of DA? Hmmmm |

Seriously though AGP. I know you make your living off turbos. And your kit is awesome. But your a car guy and you know damn well that all these power adders have a place. You need to stop the bashing of others and stick with what your system can do. No harm in admitting that other systems can do well. A little grace goes a ways. You don't need to hunt out and kill other set ups to sell more of what you have. Your kit kicks ass and puts out awesome numbers. You don't need to bash others. Just go positive with what you got. And rein in your fanboy horses around here too. It's all getting just a bit thick and distracting your system in a negative way that you just don't need.

And like I'm really not bashing your kit. Nobody has said it's a bad kit. If it was guaranteed that just swapping my blower for your kit would make me faster in the 1/4 I'd consider it. I'm not looking to run the marathon mile or street race... And that was all that I was pointing out. Last edited by nyny69; 05-13-2015 at 10:33 PM. |

If a roll race isn't determined before a heartbeat is heatsoaked then it's not going to be determined. I don't street race, but even all the clowns on youtube and whatnot don't go that fast for that long. |

What list is that? Got lots of customers that have run times all over that list. Couple 9 second time slips have been posted on our kit. Sorry if we didn't notify you personally to get on your favorite list.

In all seriousness, you are the biggest turbo vendor on Camaro5 at the moment and if you have guys running 9s and are not pimping it out your doing it all wrong. |

Meh, not sure I care about an oddball list like that, stock displacement???? Plus that's really up to the customers to put themselves on it. Nothing I can do about it. We're making more power with less mods needed than anyone, every day and it's common knowledge. What the customers want to do with that power is entirely up to them. But I know we haven't had any that under performed. And I don't think anyone has built a real drag car with one of our kits yet, so I'm not dissapointed with no 8sec cars.
But this is the FI section so I will continue to tout that I believe we have the best power adder avalible. You can accept or deny that but the chassis setup and VHT numbers only blur the facts of what power adder makes the most power. |

If you take two cars both running 700 rwhp, one from turbo and one from a PD blower. I just don't see the disadvantage on the PD.
I feel from this whole thread you are either arguing potential, which really isn't the case, considering the person asked to stop at a specific HP, that both methods can achieve. The other argument you're giving is heat, once again I don't really see this as a problem with the new heartbeat and a bigger heat exchanger. So case in point with the specific situation of running 700rwhp on a stock displacement block, turbos don't have a advantage. Not at least one that I could tell from reading all these posts.
