I thought the EMS Offroad and Spyntechs were a lot cheaper than the $1800 Dynatrac?

I have the Dynatrac kit, they were the only deal on the block when I purchased...so I didn't have much choice.

I didn't purchase them for the normal reasons...some of the early 3rd gens suffered a "70mph vibrations" and the only cure was to get the front end components to stop spinning.

Mileage...maybe? Tracking...definitely better.

you know i would be a buyer at about 1000. i think more people would at that price. if i get 2mpg better i would have to drive 100000 miles to pay off.

I have not noticed a significant mileage increase with the Dynatracs. However, I was already getting 23-24 MPG highway at 1800 RPM.
