I rekon if you "looked it over" and "checked it out"...................but then again those buy stuff because of price might not know what to look for in the first place.

FWIW... I have been running a ProComp plate on my Small block for over a year now. Using a 1.9 nitrous jet and a 2.0 fuel jet I gained just over 200 at the wheels. No idea what those jets are suppose to be though honestly. just went with the biggest nitrous jet in the kit and then a slightly bigger fuel jet because i don't know a ton about nitrous and thought that would be a little "safer".

That's running a Holley blue @ 10psi for the fuel solenoid, 110 octane, 900~psi bottle pressure on a stock 5.0HO long block, single plain hi-rise intake, full length headers, MSD ignition, Holley 625cfm carb etc...

Me personally I would rather pick up a used NOS or equivalent plate. I see they are using alot of procomp stuff in mm&ff but im sure that is bc they send it to them free to try. When they put the parts on running cars and beat the balls of them and they hold up than Ill think about using the stuff. I dont have the money to buy stuff once let alone twice.

isn't 10 psi @ the fuel solenoid a little high??

IDK.... been working fine for me thus far though. When I was running the carb/fuel solenoid off the same pump at 4psi I was using a 2.3 fuel jet with a 1.6 nitrous and gained like 75RWHP less than with this setup so. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" I guess...

10.73 @ 127 then I got "kicked off" the track because I wasn't suppose to go faster than an 11.49 or something like that due to the lack of safety equipment. The car is otherwise a "bone stock" 1990 Mazda RX7, weighs in at about 2500 with me in it. 4.10 LSD rear with 27x8x15 slicks, SBF/N2O/C4.... Sold all of the nitrous stuff a couple months ago to do a turbo setup but then I ended up building the 460 for my fox so... I will be putting it back on the juice before too long.

Procomp can't make anything right, have you SEEN their new line of TP? Two Fram's? Why not get just one motorcraft for an equally clean oil?Laughing

Im not saying they did mess it up but im weird on trying products without real feedback.

BTW you could surely mess up the size and angles of the plate. Their is some science on the design of a plate that is why some work better than others. Im not for or against Procomp but unless I ran into someoone at the track rolling good with one I wouldnt mess with it. Plus the jet sizes sound odd according to slownsteady. My cheater kit was old and used when I bought and I havent had any issues with it.

They have such a bad rap with their products why chance it when you have so many choices out there. I've had good luck with my nos cheater plate,a super shot plate and my zex perimeter plate and the one i'll try next is a 64 hole compucar plate thats new in the package hanging on the wall i wanna see how it compares to the 32 hole cheater plate and the zex plate.
