I found this system by Aeroform on fleabay and was wonderring if anyone on this forum has any feedback on it? I did a search and came up empty, so am thinking maybe this is new. At $1400 without the PS pump, not sure there is a ny bargain here over well proven systems like TCP. Anyone know anything about it?

There are two things that raised a red flag with me:

1) As bnickel mentioned it looks identical to the steeroids kit that uses the GM J-car rack. They claim that their kit has a quicker turn ratio than any other kit on the market. Since there are a half dozen kits using the GM J-car rack, this is just total BS.

2) At the bottom of the ad they proclaim "add this with are (our) coil over set up and you will feel like your (you're) driving a brand new Mustang". I don't trust anyone who can't either proof read their own advertisement or afford a real proof reader. Bad grammar and/or misspelling in a thread is forgivable (the self proclaimed English Nazis on CC made me lose all interest in posting there), but in your own advertisement? That's like wearing gym shorts to a wedding... lazy and inappropriate. How much do they care about their product?

i know the Steeroids kit has an option for the 12:1 (?) Beretta GT rack which is the quickest ratio J-car rack made that i've seen. 70 vert has that one in his car, IIRC, and he said it could be pretty twitchy if you weren't used to it.

Hey guys; open a window to Aeroform's page, and do the same with Speed Direct's page. Flip back and forth between the two. Is Aeroform part of Speed Direct? Or is that simply plagerism????

either they are a dealer for Steeroids or it's downright plagerism. Speed Direct (steeroids) is in Texas down near Abilene, Aeroform is Kansas

Thanks for the responses guys. I thought they were probably reselling someone elses product since many of the other eleanor type parts appear to be resell as well. I saw the same typo/bad grammar and thought the same thing. Not a lot of effort to proof read something... Sloppy. I have eliminated them from my potential list.
