If I decide to go F/I, I will definitely go with Dezod. You can archive this one for future reference, lol.

I was away from SL for a while when I lost hope of doing anything to my car. But now that I have a good job, I'm back and I'm glad to see that Dezod is still where they were when I left. I'll still being going with Dezod in a few months when I save up enough.

Did you have the vid of the 13.4 run, Did I miss that one somewhere?

If the stage 1 and the stage 2 kits are the same price why on earth would anyone buy stage 1?

Sure there is a little bit of lag but if you race them from a dig or a roll the stage 2 with more WHP is going to win.

Joe missed some major points and misunderstood some stuff with respect to pricing.

Don't remember. It's in there though.

^^I found it, good job. I will be making some 1/4 passes probably in about another 2 weeks. I'm excited to see what it will do on 10 PSI.


The website says 13.41@109, but the vid shows 107. And is that the only 13.4 you have? Would like to see more 13.4 runs or better if you got them.

Joe has had many 13.4 and 13.5 passes not recorded.

Looks better if you replace all the 13.7/13.8 runs with all the 13.4/13.5 runs that way it dosen't look like a One-Time wonder run....imo.

I remember when I got flamed for back when we ran a 14.8 on DR's Exhaust and S-pipe only. Because of it being a One-Time wonder run.

PS...do you not own a video camera? Why not record all the runs and update the website with the lastest and greatest?

Seems more logical to have the other corresponding 13.4/13.5 runs to use as a marketing strategy to sale the kits, then using only one 13.4 run and have a bunch of 13.7/13.8 runs up. Especially when you use the best time of 13.4 as a selling point...imo.

Our 13.8 and 13.7 runs were primarily on 8.5 PSI and our 13.5 runs were primarily on 10.5-11 PSI.

You got a dead horse, Wow, that stinks..


But then again, if Joe has a bunch of 13.4/13.5 runs, then someone has to be in the stands right? Only one person can drive at a time, and you said the runs were not even recorded. Surely you can hold a camera while sitting and enjoying the runs.
