I'll be sifting through this thread later on to see who gets a key chain.

To the off topic guys please start a new thread it's hard to comb through 2 pages of debating to see who needs key chains.

I now will apologize for pulling out the soap box for tom, which I believe he can spot from a mile away so but I shouldn't feel to bad seeing how I gave fp 7,700.00 of my hard earned dollars over the last 6 years. no regrets just beat downs.

im not saying it wont make 630whp on a Dynojet. Im just saying there is no why im off over 10-15whp off from 630whp on a dynojet. I do it on a dead flat roaded and weighted my car at the track with me in it.. see the problem is people dont do it on flat roads always i 100% no i do.. and most people that dont track there car dont know there car's weight and that will throw off the reading. again i no exact weight again i do.
VD has be proven many times that it is close to dead on if done give or take 10whp

You didn't find the 8 leg to aggressive? its easy to learn? i heard if you downshift it and pop the clutch to quick you can actually lock the tires up its that aggressive. is that true or bs?

The car i was in with the 8 leg did feel pretty good. it felt more solid. the engagement was more solid per say i guess.

8-leg is super easy to learn.. My wife learned how to drive easily after letting it out twice from a stop. It's not any different when shifting, only on take off.
