We have provided dynos charts that show that our s/c makes more power than a M motor and even though its crappy we have pretty good evidence that its faster than the M roadster.We will get a daytime race, this video was taken at night not to blur out the facts, but to avoid traffic and cops. Daytime races will be impossible during the week, Miami traffic sucks but, by the end of the week we'll get you guys a solid daytime race.
I just want to say that I know you're trying. Some of the people on this message board aren't the most mature and don't think as fast as they type. I'm just as skeptical as many of your product but sit and wait for you to prove it out. Keep giving us examples and videos please, don't do anything stupid or dangerous in the process though. I think the best thing you can do is get the system installed on someone's car who can independantly verify the workmanship and quality.

It doesn't need park distance control, and hates decadence. It is musclepacked, yet lightly wound. It lets you feel the asphalt and get you going with the smallest touch of the pedal. It provokes, seduces, and demands to be driven hard. It looks, sounds, and smells like performance.

we actually just shipped one out to a fella in kansa who originally had the DASC. He had the DASC for a month then heard about us and toke off the s/c, hes returning (DASC offeres 30 day warranty)it.As soon as our S/C gets there he is going to have it installed professionally. Hopefully he can get it installed quickly so that he can provide feed back, In the mean while we'll keep giving you more vids.

good start, but what about using someone who's already well known on this message board? For me that'd hold a lot more weight than any stranger. Check your PMs.

Seriously what did you expect? You just don't street race anywhere and you don't do it in broad daylight unless you have a long road with no cars traveling down it. I give him props for atleast psoting a video and doing the best they can with what they got. This is a new company & it's not going to get a good reputation like Downing Atlanta right off the bat. That my friend takes time.

I understand that but it would be hard to do in the daylight without getting arrested for wreckless driving .

Were racing again today , during the day 35mph-120mph. In my opinion Off the line says nothing for the car, just the driver and his traction and his clutch. 35 mph to 125 , thats plenty of time to determin which car is faster then the other.
Tu quach (318 guy who used to have the D/A kit and hes installing out kit) is amost done with install, he is finishing up the water injection kit on monday and he will have pictures and what not to post on this site.
