sorry the dyno graph is small.. but i think all the numbers are legible....
now imagin upgrading to an ems... and maybe even larger injectors for more boost.....

the car that did that dyno run ran a 11.9 with street tires....
Dont worry blue....kane just has a hatred for the inlinepro kit cause he cant accept the fact that it works so well. He has spent so much time and money on his and his is still not up and running. He can say what he wants about the kit but proof is that I myself like many others have it and it has been reliable. I've been boosted since the dead heat of July and it still running great. Sure I will upgrade to EMS next year but the whole point is that the kit works and is reliable. We will only have to wait to see when his runs and how it runs and if it will be worth all the money he spent.

You do realize i have different goals than your cars . Plus you've got no clue why my car isn't running yet. As well as why I cant even start the car up even if I did have everything in there and ready. This is my hobby. I do it cause it's worth it to me no matter what the outcome.

I know a case where it wasn't so reliable but out of respect of that owner I wont say anything.

If you're gonna ditch the fpr and everything why not save a grand or so and get the rev hard kit since it's exactly the same as the inlinepro.

Spankee, didn't you rebuild your motor though? If so, I think this directly aids in making your entire setup less vulnerable to failure.

Well most of the kits' goals were aiming at running low boost and having it be safe and reliable on the STOCK motor knowing that most people would not want to have to invest more money into rebuilding their motor.

I'm sure for most people they have a hard enough time trying to afford to buy the kit itself, much less trying to redo the entire motor.

No, you can still be safe with a turbo at low boost. And same boost settings, the turbo will be more enjoyable than SC.
