Well, just about every Ruf customer. But who cares, it's not like they are successful or anything. And they definitely do not build the highest hp or fastest accelerating cars.

Really, I thought it was just front wheel hp. It was a mustang dyno.

Actually EVOMS has a AWD Mustang Dyno. So I think his numbers are AWHP

Thanks for the mature answer Jags, some others have too much of a void between their ears!

Dan has always been helpful and positive when I have called or emailed, even when I wasn't spending any money. The craftmanship on the AP650 kit is exceptional...nothing else out there compares. Just look at those headers! And nobody else has a bolt on kit for Garrett turbochargers, which btw allows for simple and unlimited upgradability.

I feel so stupid to fall into this "who's kit is better" war/trap. From what I could see, most kits are similar based on the price. Except for the Protomotive; just look at Divexxtreme and Markski cars, super high hp with low boost. I rest my case.

I agree, this thread has gotten out of hand. I think that both kits are very similar in hp. Both kits should make someone smile from ear to ear. Both Evoms and Vivid do good work and offer great kits. What is the HP difference, probably negligible. I don't really want to be involved in a tuner vs, tuner shootout.

If Evoms wants to use my for some sort of real world testing or shootout, they are welcome to do so.

You should definitely ask EVOMS if you can use your car for the test. And then drop the car off at EVOMS for 2 weeks prior. (they might give you some free upgrades and tuning)

I just bought the AP650 with GT3076's from Dan last week. I'm glad to be hearing such great remarks on this kit. Its tough to be buy an item of this caliber over the phone without physically seeing it first. I'm anxiously waiting for the delivery.

Dan- Did it ship out yet?

Thanks
Raudel
