They run Great! He has got a Nelson pulley running 8 psi of boost, I can not believe how hard it pulles. He said it ran a 13.5 in sac. but he didn't have it tuned for the pulley.
Any of you N/A boys thinking of going F.I. I would make sure to ride in all types of boosted car/trucks. They all feel way different and you might like one over the other.

Well the Radix makes power a lot lower than the Turbo did, the turbo would start to kick in around 3k and lay you back in the seat. The Radix isnt as noticable because it makes the power so soon, you dont feel it coming on.
