I don't know about the Radix but I can say I have the STS and love it. I can't imagine having this much fun with anything else.

The Radix is pretty simple and rock solid. Here's a strong example...

My 6800 lb H2 running a 14.14 @ 97 mph with the mods in the sig. H2's run about 17.6-17.7 @about 80 mph stock. Thats a gain of 3.5 seconds and 17 mph. Imagine that on your truck which starts out running faster

I'm making about 600 hp now and still have room to grow. The truck drives like stock until you lay into the throttle. That's a tough combo to beat.

I thought the radix topped out a t 500 hp or so?

It just isn't true. I don't think the Radix is going to make me any more power but there are still other things that can be done. I haven't added headers yet... or Nitrous I still have a relatively small (though powerful) cam, too. I can always do heads... a nice set of TEA heads would do nicely to up that power level.

that's in RWHP. there aren't many radix powered trucks or cars that have topped the 500RWHP mark.

It'll take more than Radix and Cam, but I'll reach 500rwhp by the end, but won't be able to measure it on a dyno. Drag times will have to do
