Is it better to call alkycontrol to get a custom kit or just buy the GN progressive kit for $530?????

I called him personally, He sent me a kit minus the lines. I installed the kit and messured the lines and he made them up and shipped them to me. He also sent me a new windshield washer bottle with the correct size holes so I could use it for the meth. He recommended straight meth verses a mixture.
I would call him. Nice guy to talk to

Could you list the pro's and con's of each kit? What you like/disliked.

alkycontrol all the way. Julio is the man, his kit includes the two bar map. It runs seperate from the stock 1 bar map. It has adjustments for the turn on point, gain, and another gain for fine tuning. 100% meth is what I run as well, it's a good way to up the octane without paying $5+ per gallon for 100+ octane. I payed $15 bucks for a 5 gallon pal of meth in september of last year and I still have not run out. But that all depends on you and how heavy your foot is. I have ran 20-23psi on the stock block, with only 42lbs injectors. (20+psi on the stock block) Parish has done the same and he uses the alkycontrol kit. I am running out of fuel injector and pump for my hp levels, at 4500 rpm. The Razor kit and his knowledge is one of the reasons my truck has not blown up yet. The other reason, I think is I have a good tuner. Hope this helps

Honestly didn't seem that any had much of an advantage over any other. They all used 120-140+ psi pumps, push-connect hoses, nice wiring harnesses, etc. SMC had a low level warning but that's an option on most the other kits. I prefer to turn it on by boost rather than maf. The Devilsown had the most compact controller if space is an issue, but they all did the same job.

I wanted to use Julios kit but for whatever reason I could not reach him on the phone or get an e-mail response at that time, so I opted for the Devilsown which worked great.

I have the sts meth kit. It has worked flawlessly for 8 months. It was easy to install. It uses an adjustable hob switch (mine comes on at 3psi when dash switch is on) to turn it on and it taps into the injector wire to sense fuel demand. When I bought my sts kit they were running a deal on upgrades so I bought my meth kit and boost controler from them. With a 50% mix I can run 12psi with no kr and it drops my a/f 11.8 to 11.1 at wot. My kit came with low pressure warning light and a funtioning light.
Just my .02
