Love Labonte so far. originally bought an AEM kit but heard horror stories with tuning issues so i bought the labonte kit but kept the 5 gallon AEM tank. Still have the AEM kit if anyone knows anyone interested! will sell it for cheap.

I BELIEVE the owner was an engineer at Snow and moved off on his own. I believe Snow uses his kit exclusively. It’s MUCH better than the Stage 2 given the functionality. Nice choice.

I was big on innovative too but their beginning kits were a bit sketchy. The one you have is much better.

yeah. The two of them kinda duked it out for a bit when they parted ways. I’ve never really had an issue with Labonte’s products since I started using them.

Ewwwwwww, Steve showing off the abrupt, 2 minute anti-syphon solenoid install. Had to throw that one in there on a whim, at least it fixed the issue. Gotta get that back up here at some point so I can clean that up a bit 🙂
