Dude, those flow numbers are a JOKE right? I mean, i knew the 2.4 head didn't flow very well, but 125 cfm at .400" stock? thats HORRENDOUS! And in fairness, even the ported numbers aren't that great.... for 1200 bucks, i'd expect it to at LEAST outflow a $550 ported OHV head.... The Patriot Performance OHV head flows 196 @ 0.400" lift.... and over 200 cfm at 0.450".... so what's up with that? Is the 2.4 head THAT bad?

^^ I know i want input from ppl who bought it or heard if it was good or not.
those flow #s dont seem right. other companies have seen flow #s very close to that of an ho head with 20% and 8% larger ports. so they either arent porting as much as they think or there flow #s are wrong. i would email them and find out. but with that much porting you should be seeing 250-275 cfm.

Well,
If you check out over at induction dynamics the numbers are different.
Maybe a different scale though.
But yeah, the numbers aren't looking too hot on the surface.

Remember....syringes go in the RED waste basket.
maybe their flow readings were taken at a different pressure than normal? i don't know but even 126 for stock seems wrong.

We use a Super Flow SF-110 Flow bench. It is at 10 inches of water. Most likely they have a bench that tests at 28 inches of water. These are the 2 most common test numbers. This would be why ours would show lower. The over all gain would be about the same by %.

Converting 10 to 28 inches of water gives the Turbo Tech numbers to be over 300 cfm at 28".

for the mere fact that they are on the boards, answering questions, sponsoring GP's...and not only that, doing it INTELLIGENTLY, id buy from them over patriot performance barring any huge difference in price or performance.
