Hey Scott,

I havnt had the opportunity to try the 11:1 yet as Im still awaiting 
Momentum to do the install.  I was going to have either Momentum handle 
the thermal coatings or ship it to Jethot- they gave me a great quote 
for 8 pieces (325.00).

I will let the list know the details of it's performance when i actually 
get in and drive her.
