What happened to the 850R!!!! "Owners" speak up!

All these 850R turbos that were sold but still so little info on them and only 1 car in the 9's using one....

What happened, all these exited customers but no one talks about it, why so hush hush. Like Johnny 5 used to say mooooore input more input please!

It looks like I might have to step up to this, but the silence is scaring me!


Everyone with and 850R please come out the closet and let me know what you guys think. Spool, power,feel etc.....



Thanks

What's the deal, Mig?, if you were looking at a 37R this may be a better choice. In the end all the choices you mention will put a EVO in 145mph+ traps and the ability to hit 9's.......is that fast enough?
