Roush TVS1900 on Ebay less the $3000, Maggie TVS1900 from Maggie $5000+, You do the math,

You do get a tune a probable more suport from Maggie, but $2000 goes a LONNNNGGG way for that stuff,

Yea and it's even better when you got one for $1800, sure am glad I spend way too much time on Ebay, every once in a while it pays off! Maggie wants $5950 for their new TVS 1900! So like everyone else has said....Do the Math!

Thanks guys. It's a lot of fun to drive now, but that goes without saying lol.

So, on to my next problem...the power is there, but as you can see I couldn't make use of all of it. Tires usually spin all the way through 1st and 2nd, so I need more traction. Been looking at caltracs - is that the best way to go to help keep em from spinning?

Damn, thanks for the thread link, I looked them up again and they sold one a few days ago I think. If I would of been around I would of bought one just for ***** and giggles. My motor is built for boost just running it N/A right now.
