Although I fear FFP tests will be just a bit too much like a show than a true "test", at least in the scientific sense, it will be very interesting to see the results, and they should be applauded for all their hard work.
Sorry if I muddled up the thread......
Duster, I can see where you are comming from. I will not say that this test is without it's marketing initiatives. All three parties are hoping to boost sales from the visibility this test brings. I would love to pickup the portwork and ceramic coating work should this test pan out as I predicted. AGP I'm sure will be all for trying to get some porting done on their kits if there is enough of a performance gain from it as it would make their kits even better. MA Performance is new here on the forums but has had a strong local presence here in Minnesota for a while and not only do they have phenomenal pricing on the vast majority of the product they sell, they actually have install services and dyno services to boot.
I will say that beyond the publicity that I am after, I am not looking to falsify the data to boost sales. If the results come back and there is a loss of 10whp and an increase in spool time, then that will be shared and the chances of me getting any work out of this test is hopeless. I mean as it sits now, porting of AGP's kits makes up a very small portion of my business so if the results are not in my favor, then no biggie.
I think you and I are both smart enough and know the physics, thermal dynamics, and fluid dynamics behind the scene with this test and know that there is merit to what I am doing. And for starters, take a look at my last post for the preliminary data for this test.
Short and long, this IS marketing for AGP, MAP, and FFP, but I will say that I am a man with
integrity and if the results are not in my favor, it will still be shared with everyone
