Default love my powerdyne

I bought a powerdyne off ebay the other day and everyone said stay away but i decied to try it. I love it. I took it to the track to day and all i have is come bolt ons and cal tracks on bfg dr's and i went 12:60 my first run on 5psi, I played with the cal tracks and tune a bit and went 12:40's non intercooled. I dont know why every one hates them i love it and it was cheap. only $1000. But any ways i will be going to the nmra vs nmca this weekend and beat up some lightns and rams in the truck class.

nice to hear.
what are the specs of the truck? do you have any times before the powerdyne?

i like mine so far. i did however blow my internal belt the other day on 5 psi . waiting for the new one to come in the mail so i can finish this tuning.

that is faster than i would exect from a powerdyne. maybe we have been a little harsh on them.

more specs and before and after times would be nice to know. 60' time too. if you have a 6.0 and a 4000+stall and are cutting 1.5 60's then it would make a little more sence. if your running that time with the more typical 1.7-1.8 60' then i really am impresed with that little blower.
