Do I try and represent JDM to the fullest. YEP.. No apoligies there.

I am also a HUGE Giants fan and have signed footballs, Superbowl memoribilia, a signed LT Shirt.

Whats wrong with being a fan and supporting your team.

As far as blower ..I am trying to get a Whipple 3.3 because its the BIGGEST S/C available for our trucks.

I don't get all this cheerleader *****. If a vendor/tuner/whatever treats you right, why wouldn't you praise them? JDM treated me right for years, I praised them. Charles and my MP (Gasp! I'm just a lowly MP owner!) treated me right, I praised them. JDM has obviously helped Vinnie reach his goals with his truck, why wouldn't he praise them? He put a whipple on his truck and ran a new best, why wouldn't he praise whipple?

Jim,

The whole post that you made proves some of my point. You have over 200 dyno runs on your website and with all that technology, R&D work, and countless engines you have worn out on your dyno. You made "500!" dyno pulls on Earls car. Thats what you posted on your forum. So you mean to tell me after 500 dyno runs his car could not complete a 1/4 mile pass. Since you have 200 hundred individual dyno sessions dont you think you could have found the reasons your blowers were locking up? I dont know why you couldn't figure out the problem with Earls car going into failsafe after 500 dyno pulls and 3 months of having the car. Im sure Nasa can plan a trip to the moon in that amount of time. Well Ill be waiting to see his car run a 8.90 pass with the HP you posted that you made with it. Thats about what it should be running. I dont need to put dyno sheets on my website. We have already proven that we have the fastest most reliable street vehicles on the planet. When you were the only game in town your superchargers were used on our customers trucks. We did not switch from KB's to whipples for no reason. We switched simply because the whipples made more power. Its basically what the customer wants. At this point and time the majority want whipples. Im selling more whipples for lightnings than you are selling Kb's hell im selling more lyscholm (saleen) units then you are selling Kb's too. Doesnt that **** you off?!

Well you've had a couple days now to pick the KB representative to race, who's it gonna be? We know the last time you did this when i was in california a month ago you got your *** kicked. And two years ago when i was there my 03 cobra with an Eaton on it! still out ran your KB in house car and your fastest customer there! I would like you to tune the truck im going to race because i will be tuning my own.



Jim@JDM

p.s. I have personal experience on Kenne Bell's failing since 1995! I drove my Cobra from New Jersey to California. I ate up a blower going out there, ate up one while there, and another on the way home! These are all facts.

Whipple superchargers impress me. Has anyone had confirmation from whipple that the 3.3 is more than just a rumor? JDM, Vinnie, anybody ? One more, is it possible that the 5.4 motors with 2v heads just cant take any more air than what the 2.3 can deliver? Could that be a possible reason the 2.6 hasn't exactly lived up to its hype? albeit Im sure its a good blower just maybe too much? If there is such a thing

Damn your funny, but the joke is on you. Right now Mike has the fastest Daily Driver, and your still stuck in the 10's. You probably can't get over the fact that JDM's trucks beat you or your tuner to the 9's. Now you come in here trying to hide your identity so that you can shoot your mouth off.
What a coward.

+1. 24.2k to get 10s. Another 6 or 7k,( whipple, nos, DIET) and BOOM! 30k in mods for a 9sec capable L. With the cost of the L included 54k. Not bad for a 9sec capable street truck.
