Run them at 20 psi tapering to 17 at redline E85 + meth throw it on a dynojet and let the results speak for themselves. take it to the drag strip for a run or two. a few runs won't break anything. if they do they are no better in terms of reliability over RB's.
We are hardware builders, shiv is a tuner. It is his job to extract the horsepower from the products he has other people like us builds for him. I have never said his customers need to be out there racing their ST cars. That is their choice, I cannot tell my customers to run their turbos on dyno glory runs or the drag strip until they break a set. You want to do that, that's your choice you buy a set and see what you can get out of them. Everyone is happy with the power they are producing and I am not worried about them will matching RB power numbers if pushed as I am confident they will. As a hardware builder you build a product and you provide proof that it works as advertised, this is what we did with stage 1,2, and 3, we could have keep pushing stage 3 up until we broke the motor but we built a kit and proved it does what it is supposed to do, that is our job as a hardware builder. Another difference between our products and Shiv's is we allow people to use any tuner they choose. I know people have plans to race and hit the dyno in the very near future. We should see some more results soon "

They have been in customers hands for almost 2 months by now right?
I wont speak for anyone, but it seems from the customers I have talked to they are more interested in 200+ hp delta gains and reliability not glory runs, pushing them past the limits that have now been well established for stock frame turbos will no doubt provide similar numbers. But for how long. The thrust upgrade will help no doubt, but for how long at those RPM, heat, and Back pressure levels. We dont know yet. "
