Default dart vs afr

You know what would be good to see....a direct comparison of the AFR's and the Dart's. Everyone is comparing ETP's to AFR's. The afr's vs the darts would be apples to apples. From the numbers that are flowing around the board the darts and the afr's look similar except for the $$. We really need some dyno numbers to see.

The price is not apples to apples... That made my decision very easy.

Honestly if the Darts even come close to the HP numbers AFR or ET make then they are going to sell a ton of heads.
I believe it will take a couple more months for us to get a good look at dart and a better look at ETP.
For the price try a set out, I bet you end up happy dollar for dollar.
