Your former VT2-625 with meth is obviously no longer at the rated standard "625hp". So again, my intention was to compare similar playing fields in regards to advertised hardware and power output. Two companies just go about different methods of reaching that 625hp.

I remember seeing the dynos you posted with your setup and it's incredibly impressive to say the least! All with the performance times to back it up. Once again, it just proves how beneficial meth can be!

Again, the purpose of my former post was solely to provide a rough visual representation of a comparison of two different kits. Dyno'd by the same group of guys in the same city, but unfortunately, not a fully controlled situation.

Thanks for chiming in and bringing up valid points.
Agreed and I never thoght you had any ill intentions, but AA also offers a Stage 2 without Meth, you just have to run 93 octane, same as the VT625 and now many are running Meth with their ESS kits. Meth does add power and I think it should be taken into account. Otherwise I had no problem whatsoever with your comparsion, I always enjoy your posts and what you offer here.
