Chris is a great guy man, that reminds me I need to call him!

We sure will Jason, I just cant make my mind up on a MP8 or sticks, What ya think man?? Im gonna call DonM and see if the "rumor" that he might start doing just tips is true or not. If its true I might hold out for a set of those.....

i think you'd see a bigger gain by going with some sticks first however if the donM rumor is true you may be better off waiting.

i haven't heard anything about him just doing the tips though. how does it work? similar to extrude hone? or something completely different?

Your right Jason, sticks will for sure make more power and Im not sure how Don would work the tips but im gonna call him maybe tomorrow and talk with him abit and see what he say's about just doing tips. If not then mine will be on the way to Jim's and a MP8 on the way!!!!!!!!

just curious of how you plan to call Don?? I mentioned this to you a couple weeks ago that if he decides to do nozzles, it is going to be for the 305 motors first since they are not as prone to have pressure related damages

I know after we talked you called him to see what he had to say and he said he was more interested in the 03-04's first, but Im just more curious as to how long it may be before he is interested in doing the 04.5 and up tips and just talk with him abit on this subject, if its gonna be awhile id just like to know, that way I can either get a set of DDP's or send mine to Jim.

Would you mind posting up a couple pics of the mount? I just purchased an MP-8 and I kinda want it hidden. Thanks in advance.
