OK, I have been accused of using just a bit too much sarcasm so I will play it straight on this one.

You can't possibly believe that, can you? Why in the world would Diablosport do that? They would limit the throttle opening to 80% just so a competitor could produce more power and make them look sick?

As a point of reference, I went from 100-101 mph stock to 103-104 with my C&L/Diablosport setup. Does that mean I gained 3 mph in the quarter while only using 80% throttle?

I think maybe you must have misunderstood the guys at Livernois . . . at least I hope so.

OK Patrick, do you have the proof on this one? That would REALLY irritate me to find out that my baby was hobbled from the factory! If you have a link to more info on this, I would REALLY appreciate it if you could post it.

Sorry dude, but that's the dumbest sh** I've ever heard. Please don't go around getting people worked up with outlandish lies, it's really irritating. Produce some solid proof from a reputable source and I'll eat my words.
