Thank you sir!!! Much appreciated.

I think you are a little quick on raising that flag. I didn't see it in person so it isn't my BS if it is. I give it some credit since it came from the service manager at the dealership I was talking to on a how to disable my ABS. I can tell you with absolute certainty that I've been on a...

All it takes is a small bit of ice under one wheel and no brakes! I call it Jesus take the wheel. Unless you've experienced it, it's probably hard to understand. I've been in many situations where the ABS takes over and you aren't gonna stop till the system decideds to stop turning the tires...

I can't express how much I hate ABS brakes!! Are there any aftermarket devices or tuning options to get rid of them without causing issues?

Thank you sir. My knowledge I'm sure is a bit dated.

I was thinking the mechanics of rod and main bearing lubrication was a direct comparison. If other oiling considerations in a diesel engine limit your options than so be it. I dunno. Forget the top fuel comparison. Why does Ford require my Shelby to run 5w-50 but a dedicated drag truck under...

I'm not so sure about that. I had a drag motor with a filled block not making the horsepower Dan's setup likely is and I couldn't keep my oil temps under 260 in a quarter pass. And that is only where the temp sensor is picking it up. What is it at the bearings? What's your viscosity there??

Not calling you out here, I am not equipped to do so. These statements go against what my understanding was for high HP engines. I've built some race engines, (gas), in the past and an engine builder explained to me the function of the oil between the crank and rod bearings was not only to...

Yes, I believe we have a resolution and my money will be refunded. I had a constructive conversation with them yesterday and I believe they are taking steps to make corrections where needed. Best of luck to them.

When my business was struggling, what really complicated things was I was the guy with the big ideas and the talent to make them happen. I was dreaming up new products faster than they could be produced. Most of what I did was on a technical level I couldn't delegate to my employees, or hire...

Are you serious with this statement? For real?? Is this how you communicate with your customers? Super responsive on the order taking and nothing worth a damn whenever they get to it after that? Well that's good to know. PS: I'm sure there are reliable diesel performance shops out there...

How can you be working on lowering your lead times when you haven't even established a lead time? You are working 7 days a week because you keep taking orders and hoping for the best. You are very talented and people greatly desire your products. You can still work 7 days a week if you want...

On Friday September 13th I phoned Elite Diesel Engineering inquiring about the replacement 6.7 turbo kit advertised on their website. I spoke with Bryan Garey in sales. It was explained that it would take two weeks to ship the kit out due to the fact that the turbos themselves were too...

I had hoped by this point Elite would have stepped up and made this right in some way, shape or form. You are correct Sledpull. Had someone posted a simlar experience with Elite I would still be mad as hell right now but at least share in some of the responsibility of not heeding a warning. I...

To be fair, lying might be too strong a word. I've had employees set me up with bad information and passed it along making me look pretty bad. My big problem is this has happened enough times that their credibility is completely shot. If I can't get reliable information as to what is going...

At this point I don't want to mention any names. I have been a business owner for over 20 years and I understand the struggles that go with it. 4 weeks in I had to get threatening to get a response. At that time I told them I understand these things and that bad news is better than no news...

I would like to know if this is typical of businesses in the diesel performance world. I lost my turbo back towards the end of the Confederate Diesel blowup and was ready to go to an aftermarket turbo kit. With my knowledge of manufacturing, there was no way I was rolling the dice with CD. In...

Could someone tell me what the difference between Elites 3794 and 4094 would be in terms of daily driving felt difference? More lag with the 4094? Thanks in advance.
