Has an actual owner of this system ever dynoed their vehicle? Has anyone hit the numbers shown by ESS? This system seems to be head and shoulders above the rest, including the invincible AA! If an owner has tested it on a track what was your 1/4 times and mph?

I'm sorry I dont really follow you. Why do you think ESS is so much better than all the others? Its smeems pretty normal to me. Infact, it has the lowest numbers posted out of all the other companies I have seen (RMS, AA, ERT, Dinan.) The only plus to their system is that it has the lowest price of all the others, except maybe ERT.

i have a 95 m3, with the ess sc system....but no quarter mile times...soon to come. all i know is it hads great power and runs just like stock when you want it to, or it can be a rocket!!

From what I have seen on a friends 328. I was not impressed at all. Quite disappointed actually. The car may have been near ESS' peak hp claims but the power jasn't very useable. My car beat it in a 1500rpm first gear roll on.
