At the perf. shop I go to straps EVERY car with at least 4 straps. Who ** straps to the receiver hitch anyhow? I've helped 'em strap more than a few cars down, and it's ALWAYS diagnally to the axle.

I never heard em either, I was too busy laughing at the idiots. They're lucky that thing didn't come loose and kill someone. Those straps looked like motorcycle tie downs! LOL!!!

I definitely have to call B.S. also. Who ever filmed that should have been nominated for an acadamy award for achievement in film editing!
Has anyone ever seen or heard of a vehicle coming off a dyno while testing??? Just curious.

Heard of them coming loose, never seen it personally. My mustang spun pretty bad on the dyno and looked like it was gonna come loose because it moved sideways about 4", and we had 6 straps on it!!!
If anyone wants to see the vid just go to pacificp.com and find it yourself. It's a joke for sure!

I am not defending anyone here and I don't believe the numbers from that dyno run with those mods but I don't think It is anymore ridiculous than people on this site claim 700 plus HP with out even a dyno sheet to back it up when every one else is struggling to hit 600 +. Not calling anyone out just stating the facts.

According to Moolie (that is his truck/video), it wasn't all the advertisements said. Here are some of his comments from TDR for those that haven't seen it:
"Not only that but i really don't want myself afilliated with the ad since it's misrepresented. The program doesn't have the tire size feature that the ad says, also the claims are exaggerated but who's aren't. I got 170 higher on level 3 then i did without the program on level 3. However with no six gun period it wasn't anywhere near that i think like 80 more. i was happy enough with the results of both products together though so i kept it."
