I loved them, extremely responsive on a 3” manifold. I did run them on a 4.2 though.
Guy that bought them from me is on here and runs a 3.8 and he hasn’t had any issues.
They don’t spool as fast as the Elite Prime R, but just downshift and they did the job lol.

okay awesome. i am doing my first build and im doing a non billet crank 3.8, with 1k drag trans with a Alpha 12x kit. hoping i can reach 1400whp im not 100% sure if its doable ive read on here that some people only make 1200 and others making like 1500, its very inconsistent numbers. i just want to be able to tap into 8s 1/4 and into the 3's 60-130 =D

I was going to go 12x when I went 3582 when moving up from A9. I didn’t because they were so laggy, atleast on AMS’s manifolds - someone posted a 2.9 60’ no launch control. Why I went with a 3” manifold on the 3582 and still ran a 3.5 60-130.
Why not go primes or even the older elite kit. Can pick them up much cheaper and they will out perform based on the fact they are stock manifold.
I bet Cicio will have some certified / rebuilt kits with their nee stuff coming out.
They spool much quicker.

Some billet love from Shep, more powder and titanium, some ETS parts and that new top secret turbo kit everyone is posting about lol.
Oh and probably an oil change and some dyno time ;)
New powder color is tits - illusion royal - I like it as much in pictures as I did my cool ranch Dorito blue A9 days.

Droptopp, you and I have similar luck! My car is on a truck right now going to Cicio to fix my grenaded front diff. I also will be slapping on bigger turbos while its there since the engine is coming out anyway. When I say that out loud it sounds more reasonable!

Hahaha crazy - not laughing at you brother - laughing with you.
The irony - I literally post, “this is the first time in four years I’ll park the car for the winter with the same motor in it” and within 3 hours I pop the diff.
I couldn’t even stop laughing when I did it. I was like, shit better now than first day out next year.
And an hour before that my go pro went flying off the car and lost it.
Was an interesting day considering I wasn’t even going to drive the car lmfao.
