Sorry, like I told JBA on the headers purchase, no one is going to buy a
product unless it has numbers printed. I call it cost-effectiveness. Our
great leader of the pack Matt (4.7L engine mods), has bought usual
information to the table for mod upgrades and what you are getting for your
money.
A real bad example is AirRaid, which claimed to have high numbers but could
not produce a single Dynojet receipt of the test bed vehicle. I advised to
reconsider the claim until you can prove it.
This is why the 4.7 owners are in an endless pursuit for you Tony for RWHP
numbers.
On the canister version, tell that one to the Ford SVT engineers for the
Cobra R, which has the twin setup to the front air dam. It seems to work on
that vehicle (376RWHP) 380 SAE HP.
But remember Tony, we still LOVE YOU DUDE...YA DA MAN...now can we all just
get along....

You guys must have nothing better to do than DREAM up issues to argue
about.......
I have been asked about the Dyno #s on the 4.7 TB, and my usual response is
I
dont have any #s yet.
I never post my #s for the exact reason that there are some of you out there
that will say I am floating the #s.
ALL THE #S ON MY PAGE ARE FROM CUSTOMERS RESULTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
was that clear enough.
mainly from the RT club. I doubt those guys are wrong.
Now lets think.......how many people out there have 4.7 TBs............Oh
yeah,
ONE,
and that is my test truck. We are starting to ship out the TBs this week,
so
the #s will start coming back pretty soon.
if you want another issue to discuss.......try figuring out what increase
can be
had by putting a high flowing air filter into a restrictive
cannister........no
one ever wants to talk about that one.
so first everyone thought that I ran off to Mexico with their money, and now
I
am avoiding questions.......cool. Well, guess what, everything is shipping
this week, and even when I am buried under emails, and work, and family, and
all
the other crap involved with being a single guy trying to make
living........I
am still the most reachable source of products and info.
I emailed Procomp about some stainless steel brake lines.......3 weeks
later, I
got a one line response saying they dont make them. So I will be trying to
make
my own today after shipping out all the TBs. And I am pretty sure Procomp
has
more than one employee, and they all make more $ than me.
The DML used to be a great source of info.........but lately is just been a
gossip headache.
Get the facts straight before you post.......
I am sure that enough of you know me out there, that you know I dont hide
from
questions, and that I back everything I sell. But I get kinda tired of all
these cheap shots from the side line coaches.
I sit here at 3am after getting off work, answering emails for people about
how
much they should be paying for exhaust, or which mods are worth the money,
or if
what the dealer is saying about their truck is true............and If you
think
I am doing all that because of the couple bucks I make from the
parts.........YOUR WRONG.
I am a truck guy because I like meeting all the great people, and hanging
out
with my local club, but all this crap and bickering is getting old.
