I am prepared to put it in .You go race it get up to .3 second quicker down the 1/4 mile then if you are not satisfied dont pay a cent and we remove it. If you do you are happy with it tell your friends and post it here.I wil still leave it in for free. I am that confident that it will make a great difference. Be warned though ..it must be used responsibly .This kit is for drags only.People should know that these are available here and they will make a big difference.

The Results:

I was rather dissappointed with my runs, being a 16.4xx and the later 16.3x, which is not bad for a fairmont ghia, but still not up to speed. my air intake almost guarantees a fair bit of power loss, especially when the engine heats up.

THE BAD:

Seeing as i was in the market for an LSD, and had sourced one, i figured i would give my diff a bit of a hard time. for those who didnt get to see it, on my 3rd run, lining up next to a supra, ripping a massive burnout, this sealed my fate.

i take off, with a massive clunk, and the speedo jumps to 140!

only problem being, i was not moving. the diff had died!

ROFL!!!! what a way to go!

new LSD is waiting in my garage for daybreak tomorrow, and then the race is really on.
