It runs better than stock, but I still don't believe 100-120 RWHP better.

I would never realize the benefit of a centrifugal, it would be a total waste of money. Right now with my Radix I'm at a stop light and it turns green and I'm GONE BROTHA!!!

I remember seeing some dyno sheets .. I didn't look hard at them cause I didn't care much. I know I ran a best of 14.35 and went back after the cam and RADIX and turned out some VERY traction limited low low 13's. Once I got sticky tires and got some of the kinks ironed out, I turned out some mid 12's. Now THAT is more interesting to me. THAT would be more of a selling point to me. I will agree with Brian's statement you claim he tells to everyone, you and the other retsel guy are THE ONLY problems I've heard of with the RADIX. I'm sure they exist, but what product doesn't have problems. When you make something to enhance a product, you are chancing it then. I will absolutely garauntee that there is no 2 vehicles that are JUST ALIKE. Now ... let's see you make something to that magnatude work for every vehicle without fail. I think maybe YOU should step back and take a look at things.
Maybe the guys at ASM were ready for you to get out of thier shop. Maybe that's why they never dyno'ed that truck for ya. They may also have thought you were going t come after then for the problem. Also ... if I remember right wasn't your problem due to an existing GM part, like the fuel pressure regulator???? And yet ... Magna got everything going for you and covered it under THIER warranty at no cost to you when in actuality it had nothing to do with the RADIX kit.
Back to the thread ....
Chingy .. he built it to e-thug without slips .... that way no one could say for sure it wasn't a 12 second truck. But us and out infinite knowledge all know better. (you can laugh already about the infinite knowledge part).

c3c5 ran a best of 12.97 N/A, no boost, no N2O i believe. Im running 13.7s N/A with my 5.3 and no stall, on street tires. With his built 408, stall, AWD, and 22s he is running almost a second faster. His truck weighs almost 600lbs more than mine too. I wish i could afford to get him to build me one.
Im hoping to get my 3500 stall in, along with the bigger cam, slicks, and Edit to get my truck into the 12s N/A. I think ill be the first 5.3 to do it. Then im going to swap heads with the Camaro and throw the turbo on and shoot for low 11s. That may be pushing it though.
