He did that early this year and thats how he ran his high 9.

It sounds like the lightning owners are stalling. They fear the torque monster you have there Parish. Until there is a race between their fastest L and your truck, they will continue to bad mouth it.

I agree JL is a very cool guy.

I imagine he'd agree that if you both went "hardcore" the turbo'd engine would almost always prevail. The kenne bell/auto rotor blower just won't produce as much hp or torque.
