Didnt like what I saw in the other kit. I live in Miami, it rains a lot here and speaking completely seriously, hydrolocking is a real concern for me. In my opinion the location of their sc is forced and they had to make some serious compromises to get it to work. Regardless, I asked the questions because I don't want to make premature assumptions without their data. It just seems "half way to get it out sooner than Stillen" for me. What difference does it make though, its just one person's opinion. Not an attack on GTM or anything but, the fit and finish of all the clamps, welds, and other bits feel like they could have used another week or two in development.

Feels like a LOT more actual research has gone into the Stillen than the GTM. When I look at the GTM kit it seems like "OK we know what we want to do, lets find a way to make it work and voila." The Stillen ones seems to me like they said, "Ok, whats the best way we can do this and why? Ok we chose this, lets study the options and make sure we are maximizing performance. What could we have done to make this better?"

I don't know if that makes any sense to you.
