The article states that the guy in it made 393 rwhp on a stock engine (aka stock ports) with 50k on at 13 psi reached "well before 4000 rpms". For $2250, you just can't beat this kit (if these numbers are accurate and reproducible)... ball baring or not.

A member/tuner on here made 460rwhp @ 14.5psi on a To4S(60-1)

If he wants to chime in he can....

These guys are a bunch of crooks.If you value your time, money, and your 7, I would recommend you get a kit elseware.Remember, sometimes you get what you pay for, and it won't certainly be with these guys.You have been warned!

Why don't you expand on this and also post the resolution? ALL of my dealings with Davinci as far as work and products have been 100% satisfactory.

First off..how dare you saying that after all we did to try to help you! Phillip you are only angry because your scam didn't work! You know that your issue with us was due to your changing your mind on your application after purchase!

** Warning to all vendors**

be warned that phillip martin will try to dispute his charges around 3 months after purchases without calling or even trying to resolve any issues.



---- call for details.
