NO!!! Mine hits harder now then it did with 2.76 pulley and 125shot of nitrous. The VMP should come with a set of tires. Lol
That's what I wanted to hear!!!! :beer:
i seriously ordered slicks, it just grenades my 315 MT drag radials right off the car, for 600 ft....I even have video for proof!

Link?
im waiting for it to be uploaded....some kid always shooting the videos down at our sunday night spot
Anyone else very disappointed with the inlet on these?
Just installed a unit on bandit5.4's car, and the only thing I really didn't like about the blower was the location of the pcv nipple on the blower, but the inlet was horrid.
The color doesnt match the blower very well.The casting looked terrible, especially on the inside, and the outside surface was not even from corner to corner. As far as fitment, the opening for the throttle plates was not even close to matching and shaped wrong, and the oring channel for the side that bolts to the blower was way off center, almost all the way to the edge on one side and was too small for the oring provided.
Overall I loved the tvs itself, but the inlet was an eyesore in comparison, and needed a bit of grinding for throttle blade fitment and had to be rtv'd to the blower.

Blake,
We appreciate your input.
Did you contact the shop?
I don't recall hearing about this.
If there is a problem we would like the opportunity to make it right.

I told paul to inform you guys about it, but he drove from out of town to get it installed so we had to make it drive able. It was Sunday so we could not contact at the time.
We took pictures in case you guys needed them. I'll remind him to call you.
Adam
