Purely a waste. You're not even throwing them any business by your own admission. You're trying to milk them for free and then go elsewhere when it comes time to write the check.

People like you make me feel bad for tuners. If you bug the out of town ones as much as it seems, I feel bad for your local guy. I'd say that it'll be like a really poorly paying lottery for the tuner that finally does win your business, but honestly I don't think it'll ever happen. We've been hearing about potential setups from you for years and nothing's changed. Just hype and BS as usual.
so he is a bit of a milker?must suffer from one of those attention disorders or something-

its gone from 481,440 something-427 and 422-gone from nre to the engine builder in his state-

get the money first as u are talking like u wish u had-the only thing u have is a special imagination-

The owner will release the details on our site after the race season this year.

It is very impressive coming from a Cosworth engine. They are awesome engines all together.

The most powerful Cosworth engines Ive ever seen, are the Maltese Mk1 drag cars, that are trapping nearly 180mph over the 1/4. Drag cars with air shifted Jerico/Lenco transmissions.

As soon as he allows us to post the info we will. He is very secretive about the setup and it seems to work. I know the car is running some sick times. All the info will be posted on our site once he gives us the go ahead. He is our exclusive European distributor now and the international part of our website will be added after the turn of the year.

Why? even if he does "push the limits" its not really him doing it. Its whoever builds the setup. All it will really prove is that he throws alot of money at his car.

By the way, I have known Harlan since.... 2003. Needless to say, he is an idiot and has no idea what he is talking about.

Now if you need to talk to a turbo guy, there is this dude that used to own a Silver Turbo z28 (Like fastest Turbo LS1 EVERRRRR) that I can get you in touch with. He can make your wildest dreams come true.
