I wanted to find out if anyone has experience with the below girdles and what power output they were putting out? Atomic - #306254 - Atomic main cap girdle - 10mm thick suit FG-on Ford 6 cyl Street application $ 495.00 Mace Engineering - 10mm Aluminium, MAIN CAP GIRDLE FORD FALCON BARRA XR6 BA BF FG FG X 4.0L 6 CYLINDER $ 350 Spool - 10mm steel. SPOOL XR6 main cap girdle - $425 Procomp Electronics - machined from 1045 steel - $250 Sonic Injection - Manufactured from 10mm Medium Carbon mild steel - $225 I am leaning towards being brand generic with this but up for advice from those with experience?

Atomic one turned up looking like a 4 year old had used the die grinder to de burr the holes with most bolt down surfaces having burr marks all over them.Want something that fits properly without worrying I would ring Jason at Tunnel Vision turbo charging. Can't comment on the others as this is all I've used other then the current one that we had laser cut from a stock girdle and then drilled the holes ourselves.
