New beginings

[J.R. Adkins]

I did not start selling performance products until last year. Before then it was all for fun. (and it still is ) All of the parts that I was building and testing were being paid for by me. Some of the information was being shared freely with some well known vendors and with members of this very site. There have been several bumps in the road along the way. I have followed my heart and done what is right by others even at great cost to my-self and my family. Some have reached lofty goals and never looked back to ALL of the people who have helped them. Give thanks to the ones who deserve!! I work all day and come home and help my wife of 10 years with our children then go and work on a truck until 10 or 11 every night and also give my weekends to working on trucks. I could not even count how many times I have talked on my cell phone for hours with others to help them with a problem be it with a govenor spring install to helping another person build a twin turbo setup for his own truck. I always have and always will love the look on a persons face after making their first B. O. M. B. This is what I love to do.



I just wanted to thank some of the key people that helped me along the way.

JR,



i wish i had someone like you around my neck of the woods. to far of a drive for me. good luck!



PS if someone accuses you of stealing ideas, copying etc. i will say in advance screw'em!



ps there is a huge market for towing wastegated twins that cost around $2500-3000.



not extreme twins just a towing set up that are plug and play super diretions maybe even a video. use own hx35 with appropriate housing and modded ht3b open throat 26 housing. simple, cheap, and great! get a person to 500hp with great egts.



just a sug. it may be more of a pain than its worth.

JR. . I don't believe I have met you yet [maybe 2 yrs. ago at Muncie ?? if I did I don't remember sorry]...

Good luck in you venture, trust people most will not screw ya and there are ways to correct those that do LOL

remember all you have to sell is your integrity and great service, don't bother with what others do as you'll build your business on you not them.
