Two of my friends have personal experience. One kid I was friends with at the time Jannetty Racing was tuning his 98 Cobra thats supercharged yada yada he was tuning it and blew the motor, got no sorry, money, and still made him pay for the tune lol. Second friend has a 1g Talon built bigger turbo yada yada again. He also went there to have I think a piggyback wired up and they screwed up the wiring on something so simple :roll: Then he had them tune it with dsm link and apexi neo and the tune the WOT, when done was so lean it couldve blown his motor if he didnt notice his wideband. Also had less power than when it went in. Maybe hes good with carbs IDK, I personally dont have any experience other than seeing his supercharged 502(IIRC) chevy wagon at the drags and at a car show. I wouldnt take my cars there but thats me. Oh and he rapes you on prices. I bough a 90 degree 3" couple last year maybe for 25 or 30 bucks and thats just parts.

I say sfc, rear end, wheels. but thats just me

also my ttops don't have that outrageous squeeking anymore, its like this little hickup thing now, every here and there, and going over a curb or bump its not non existing now, which it was soooo annoying before. :) i'm loving it. plus now when i give it full throttle on the line, i feel like my whole front end lifts up a bit, before it wouldn't so much.. lol

I think I'm gonna stop in at Swift Motorsports again and ask about another dyno day. I figured a nice spring day with some cool dry air will make some good numbers.
