Default Alkycontrol Rocks

Had my Alky pump for over 5 years, which came from an E.C.S kit and it was time to up-grade to a new pump. So I called Alkycontrol and talked to julio and dealing with him was great, he took time out of his busy day to explain how the kit works and what everything does!! Guys like him make this hobby what it is today GREAT, and thanks again for everything. Now with this new pump I can have fun with my car and know my motor is safe!!!!

Julio is a great guy, he has helped me out a few times.

How long are the pumps good for? I guess they are like anything else and wear out.....

Does your kit use the washer tank?

ECS did a pro job on the install. Your Z looks fantastic. Nothing like a nicely polished Novi 2K under the hood of a mint black Z06.

Hey, you got a black C5 Z06 w/ Novi 2K, Vince also a black C5 Z06 w/ Novi 2K, and Sabir has his black C5 Z06 w/ a ECS Novi 2K on its way.

Damn. Looks like a black Z06 is a prerequisite for a Novi Kit up here!

I'm very happy with the work ECS provided! The novi kit offers great value for your dollar and can be configured to run low 9's in the right set up. With all the black Z's and novi's it will be hard to single us out

Thanks for the kind words
