Okay, but you're still slower. LMAO

Back on topic...

Looking forward to official press release and pricing. Especially after GTM's comments over in their thread and their rumored pricing being pretty damned low.

Well I think their new kit is in a different market class than what F.I. is producing here.
This kit will compete against GTMs garrett TT setup which can get fairly pricey for some. Which at that point comes down to design, power under the curve, etc rather than price.

I think I have one last thing to say about the drag time banter and then would appreciate if we could all get back on topic which is the TT Kit.

The time of 11.75 seconds is a great time. A great accomplishment especially with street radials. No one can take that away from Nismo370. Job well done.

Now, we have been drag racing for a long time and gone 8 seconds in the 1/4 mile. Throughout all of the years when records have fallen no one has said, oh well you did it on slicks and I did it on street tires. The specific record that we broke was fastest Nissan 370Z E.T. Keep in mind the tires we did this on do carry a D.O.T. number and are street legal tires. In any class drag or otherwise, they are considered a radial.

If you want to compare apples to apples both times were achieved with stock blocks however we went 3 tenths faster on less power, less boost and I do not know what he has but we did it on stock suspension with a 2.5" exhaust system.

This is all I have to say about this and hopefully it will now be put to bed.

Thanks, Tony

It's hard to hear someone tell you your accomplishments of the past are meaningless now.

I spoke to Mike and Spoke to Tony.. both are awesome people to speak with but I don't know what worth this fight for.. why you guys (GTM & F.I) are not working together to perform a better kit for the community and beat the hell out of other rubbish cars instead of fighting with each other..

For me turbo kit is a turbo kit. they both know what they are doing. just go what ever is closer to you or cheaper to ship to you and full stop end of the story.

Who ever is worshiping a specific company I think you need start reading books and start a new life.

Enough said.

PS: I own a GTM Stage 1 turbo kit with stage 4 transmission and forged internals short block. Tony knows I like his kit and Im waiting for a specific item from them so I can buy it right away when they release it (Tony knows what part is this).
