Based on your mods I would say go for it. Shane at Wicked Diesel seems like a good guy and I've heard nothing but good things about the Arson kit. Im looking for a good lift pump set up and the the Arson kit is next on my list

I dont personally know about the reliability of the arson kit. in another post today somebody asked about wicked diesel"s arson kit, and another company's product. Larry Ellis (if you dont know, i think hes the founder of DTR) replied to the thread as follows:
"Both these companies were banned from DTR because of their business practises. There are better products out there sold by HONEST vendors, thats where my money would go". that was taken directly from Larry's context. just tryin to give a heads up.

I only know of a couple companies that sell the CP3 kits. I think Floor It Diesel and maybe BD. As far as shady business practices, I wouldnt know. I talked to Shane at Wicked and he seems like a nice guy. He was helpfull in answering my questions and seems to stand behind his products. If someone knows of a better product or company I would like to hear about it. I'll be getting my fuel system and CP3 mod soon and its nice to know of all your options.

If you plan to run the TNT tune with your Smarty, the Arson kit will not keep up. Put the money toward a pump from Floor It or Darkside.

Darkside was banned here in the same context as was mentioned above with other companies. I do not know any details of any of them.

Yes, but it wasn't anything that would affect quality or service. I have talked to Bobby and also know a little about his pumps. Floor It is the best, no doubt. But John is so busy that a lot of people don't want to and can't wait for a pump from him. In that case, the only other pump that I personally would buy would be from Darkside. That opinion is based on quality, service, and price.

Not true. It keeps me fueled to close to 600hp with the TNT on 9 and very nice RP. The Arson kit is very good for the money and it was delivered as promised with good support. As for being banned I know at least one company that is banned from here that runs a first class operation (soulezoo knows them well too), so do yourself a favor and look into the company for yourself with combined references.

24.5-25K that was to 578HP 1147LBS. My tow twins ran out of air. I also run stage 1 DDP's so that helps.

I apologize for not being very clear. The fact is I have no personal experience with Darkside, (or the other vendors mentioned that were banned). I was making only the statement that they were banned here and I do not know the reasons why.

I've got no direct information or reasons otherwise to either recommend or warn off anyone from them.

When a vendor is banned for dishonest business practices, they like to say that it was only because they had a disagreement with me, that is completely incorrect.

There are lots of vendors that frequent this board that I have had disagreements with over the years, but they are still here because they conduct business in an honest manner.

If a vendor is dis-honest with me, then there is no reason to think that he isn't dis-honest in other areas of his business as well, generally people do not pick and choose when to have integrity, and when not to. You either have it, or you do not.

You guys are welcome to spend your money any where you wish, but for me I refuse to be associated with any business man I know is dishonest and I remove them from this forum.
