A few months back, there was a good stir, now nothing.. Did this thing ever make the HP stated. Was the low end loss horrible?? I mean talk about a bottle rocket effect lol

I looked for information on this a while back and found almost nothing. Did not try really hard though. I'd like to know too....

been a lot of work but not much written. had one guy put one on a large cammed 4.8l. gained low end but didnt pick up the top end like he hoped. i am personally working on my own setup. proflo xt on a lq9 setup, hope to have it running soon. others have done their own setups but not much gettin posted. i am curious as to why not.

thats hilarious. sounds like poor setup and tuning to me. have heard that same story, along with losing torque and massive heat soak, but no proof behind them. except for one guy who claimed to lose a full second in the 1/8th, all i have seen is massive gains and increased redline pull. have seen the proflo xt used in tbss, camaros, test fitted in cts-vs and corvettes, but its meant for the trucks.
