Id worry about getting a S1 completed before working on an S2. A shop car may help.

you can't just advertise that your kit does 12 second passes without:

2) explaining that these times are not typical of the "out of the box" kit.
And you definitely can't claim one is faster than the other without having done a fair comparison.
We are all still waiting for the major companies to get together and do an actual shoot out and lay this debate to rest.
I agree, so far we have seen customer cars from Dezod and Turbonetics run high 13s out of the box. Still waiting on those other companies to see what they can run 'out of the box'..
Just curuious - do you have vids/pic/post as fars the Dezod and Turbonetcis kits out of the box runs?

For me, out of the box, I was missing a slew of parts and even after getting it running I made 200whp which is hardly the 13 sec mark.
The base tune was too rich for you, but you had a tune hacked together and made very respectable power.

BTW, we have several kits runing around. Sorry the tC was not for you Matt. Ever get that BMW?

Tuning aside, I had to buy couplers, houses, adapter, etc...

Do you have any people on the boards with the kit - I'd like to see the others out there and how they differ.

Never got the bimmer - still trying to get rid of this pos. GOod thing though, cuz the new 335i is just awesome

Maybe they will appear out of the woodwork. Not sure there sir.

Couplers? Yes, I think we shorted you 1 or 2. I offered to send them, and you picked it up locally.

Hoses? What hoses did you get? We supplied Vac line.

Adapter? What is that?

Your tC is a POS? Huh...........
