The NY/NJ guys say that the jack stand to driving ratio of the FI guys is heavily weighted to the jack stand scenario.

Therefore, when someone new buys a kit or goes FI they always ask if he bought a set of jack stands. IIRC they said the same thing to Puff

If that's true, then ultimately I will pass...I want to DRIVE the car during
the couple of decent months we get here in NE.

We'll see how Puff does. For every botched install I'm sure there are tons of then that went off without a hitch.

True, Mike, but as Scott said that doesn't guarantee anything.

Well Mark ... My Failure rate so far is 0% but that does not mean I still wont tell someone to expect the worse ...


If you want piece of mind Supercharger is the better solution for the power you are looking for ..

I always understood it that turbo gets you more low-end torque and that
is where the S is most lacking.

Which one is ultimately easier on the motor?

Don't forget the Kraftwerks charger give a load of power in the low range too!
