Forged in fiery pits of Mordor.




Did you guys see Visconti's new pricing and release? $975 for a non dyno tuned setup? haha. No wonder they weren't responding to me. They jacked the price up $400.

Since I already have stud replacements, it'd be yet another stress point on the wheel bearings/hubs. I don't think it'd be worth it but thank you.

Yeah but so do other shops haha. Im not saying they aren't good. But RT is dyno tuning my FI build for less than that. Also anyone with bigger injectors/fuel pump/e85/FI will need the stage 2 and that's probably close to 1500. And if this was going to be the case then they shouldn't have told me $600 dynod.

Seems like red is just a very saturated and therefore vulnerable color. The red in tattoos fades easily, it's hard to tint icing to a deep red without affecting the flavor, etc.
