I seriously am this big of a noob, sorry.

its not a matter of better, just different. not everything in life is max HP and Peak HP. This thing will destroy centri's in certain aspects, and get hammered in others.
If this was finalized, and released 4 months ago, Id have it "

so its safe to say digs are out for you..? "

yes, but hundreds of svt and gt500 forums support it.. BUUUUUT Ford owners are not always the most critical thinking types

meth on the fins is actually good for these. i think it was KB or whipple actually suggest it "

i know they tried it, i know they put it on your car, but we have yet to see anyone else running them, or a dyno..many years later.. so.... key word "tangible" "
