SparcoEvo,
I'm assuming you are really Sparco affiliated, so I like to say a couple of things.
1. Your car is an awesome piece of work!
2. No Vishnu employee has ever badmouthed Sparco to my knowledge and I talk to them all the time. In fact, just the opposite: Shiv, David, and Lambtron made special mention of their respect and like for the people at Sparco numerous times and when they heard you were going to be at the last SoCal meet Shiv was bummed that he wouldn't be there to talk to the Sparco crew (and I have personally seen the image of the Sparco Evo on two wheels on the Vishnu computer's desktop).
3. Thank you for your excessive donations to all the meets I have gone to. I now have two pairs of Meca gloves, a super cool duffle bag, a very nice backpack (gave it to IE Evo) and my friend won your racing harness. Once again, THANK YOU! Your generousity demonstrates how much your heart is into these Evos.
4. There is getting to be a huge number of Xede/Vishnu customers out there. There are always going to be a couple of overzealous happy custumers who make comparisons about whatever is on their mind, fair or not. (edited, sorry n00dle)
5. The Vishnu car, although tuned well for that dyno pull, was not tuned super aggressively. My evidence: Shiv and David told me about how it was tuned. AND, Shiv is very well aware of the repercussions of blowing up his car at another tuner's shop. He would never hear the end of it. His car is really strong with its current setup.

Smoggy's 1+ put down the most of the ten customers cars that were chosen in a raffle and if Shiv's beast would of been their he would of put down the most of all cars that dynoed period. So Shiv has a project to tune a mag car and decides to go on the dyno to see where he stands.

You have 1 year in advance to think about it. 
Just keep an eye out...something wicked this way comes!!
Yep. As soon as the details get hammered out.

You guys are still voting? Yeeesh...
Oh... yeah, December will be good for us since I'll be out of state on the NJ Tuning Trip during the first week of Oct. And by Dec, we should have new One Lap MR finished (thanks
