I agree.. You don't pay to run at any drag strip and just "not get timeslips". Even on test and tune days where they don't show the times on the boards you get slips...

I'm also very skeptical about the dyno numbers these guys are claiming. Nothing seems to add up here.

"115-120+" is a huge difference in power. How much boost are you running? Sorry, but I won't believe anything I read about this kit until I see independent dyno numbers and timeslips.

OK wait they had trap speeds and you know your 60 ft but you don't know what you ran? And they didn't print the slip... smells like BS to me...

I don't know man. This kit has been in the makings for so long and you are the only person we know that has this kit so you have to give people more info or they are going to keep calling BS.

the track site does have 1/4 TIMes so it has to have something

something doesn't add up, maybe we are seeing inflated dyno numbers, bs about the "track day", who knows...

FYI that video (and thats using the term loosely as it looks like a montage of stills) looks like a 5 year old attempted to make the Blair Witch Project redux. How come this company can't post dyno sheets? Clearly if they had to tune the car there should be SOMETHING to present...

I'm still waiting to see any substantiated claims made by the dealer trying to move kits on our local club website. He says 406whp @ 6psi on a stock motor... I'm not going to start bashing really, but when you stretch the truth to the consumer in attempt to move product it doesn't go over well with those that are technical enough to make the distinction.

How can a turbo kit with 22 feet of piping make full boost at 3200 with the "large" turbo option!?
