i love my pgt and i wouldnt trade it for ----. . . . . they're finally coming out with aftermarket support. . . a lil late yes but hey i won't complain. . . .ummm i'm thinkin dan (sac) from probetalk.com is runnin an 11.7 or something like that with a 75 shot and a klze with some work. . . . idk i do like how much cheaper it is to have a hatch. . . . but when i run my probe i shift at 7300 and i don't know many v6's that take that all the time. . . . a fidanza and a UD pulley rev fast as ---- and pull hard all the way. . . .anyways enough with my ranting that probe is sexy. . . . to you sexy probe

Ya I had a KLZE probe before the CRX and it ran a 14.6@95 with just a swap and I/E. I then threw a 75 shot on it and it really woke up, but I ended up gettin in a fender bender and selling it before I ran with the NOS setup.
My only problem was with the transmissions, went through 3 of them within a year or so. Damn ACT clutch and solid motor mounts might have helped too.

isnt it dyno proven that those things practically do nothing except snap from an UD pulley set, how much weight are you really losing?? doesnt seem like a practical buy.

true it's not going to make a dyno difference. . . but that's not where the difference lays what it's doing is spooling faster because it's saving the weight off of the pulley. . . just like when u get a lighter flywheel it's taking all that mass off ur crank and helping spool soo much faster. . .and it's putting u in ur powerband quicker. . . .like a stock pgt flywheel is 22 lbs i believe and the fidanza is 9lbs u do the math
