those guys are a bunch of retard brand loyalists(although..its probably not there fault... just the tv show makes them make sponser stuff preform better than it really does). They forged a motor...then supercharge it and only manage mid 500 whp... but i'll watch it anyway because most other car shows are worse.

forged and blown and only mid 500's at the wheel? sounds like a pretty smart idea.... and a safe reliable engine... pretty good for some retards

that was at 7.5 psi i think. Never knew how clean that kit was. That IC is nice too. I'd throw it on a dyno though rather than the tuner they give. i think at 8psi its got 550 in it.
I wish the show was a bit more technical and didnt just drool over whatever theyre working on. No mention of specs on the turbos/WGs/BOV or anything.

I wish all installs could go as easy as they do on these shows. Everything fits perfect, no fighting to get a part in or out, no swearing or throwing things, no wrenches, screwdrivers or sockets falling into abyss and and everything is always clean
