Nice! I didn't recognize that SC3000 when I first saw it there. Luckily you explained that it was a new line. Good luck with your new set up man.

I tell what's not sexy......

YOU.......BLOWING THROUGH A YANK ST3500 to the tune of over 6000RPM extension......hehehehehe.....Wonder what the stall was on that run?

Hopefully you'll get 3 or 4 mile an hour trap speed increase and put that TURBO midrange to good use.....

Then crank up to 10 psi....a let her fly
