I guess the one thing that can be learned from all of this is this: TN knew what they were doing when they designed a kit to be ran on a stock motor at a modest 360-380whp, and nothing more. Which is perfectly fine because they never claimed it to be any more than that.

I say the mods close this thread until Craig says to re-open it when he is ready to post the numbers!

Take the pissing match elsewhere.

This seems to be a common problem with shops, they take on alot of projects at once, which doesn't allow for a complete car. Little things are overlooked and rushed, Many others and myself have ran into the same problem. All of this causes frustration and stress on both parties, not mentioning the forum bull **** that also comes along with it.

you are right, except for the overlooked or forgotten part. good work takes time. i wish i could hire 10 more really good people to help out, but thats not the case.

there is a reason that all of our customers continue to come back for more.
