Contact SupraRich he's about the only person here with actual experience at those power levels.

Contact SupraRich he's about the only person here with actual experience at those power levels.

Already have, he's running the SIP Pistons, but those are $1500 a set compared to the range of $700. Double what i was wanting to spend. I know theres a couple more 7m's out there, Tony at Final Stage as well as others

May be a couple more but the owners aren't active here so all you're going to get is second hand "he said/she said" and not first hand info, for that power level it would be worth picking up the phone and speaking to Tony in person.

I've heard Tony is quite a DB (multiple 10sec 7m's in AZ) when it comes to info but I will give it a try, 3rd time now 2 emails and 1 phone call.

If I absolutely have to run the SIP's then I will

Always good to get it direct from someone that's actually done it Steven

I could "suggest" things all day long but it would only be at best guestimations with no basis in reality!

Good luck with the build if you go for it, it's a BIG ask with the 7M platform not unachievable but it's NOT going to be easy and you'll need ultra attention to detail as at that HP the slightest flaw will end in tears.

seriously....for 1200+ hp what did you expect? Only been like 2-3 7ms to break 1000hp. If you want that high of horse power...you best be buying the best shit you can lol or things gonna blow up real fast
