Who has the TuneRS DOF installed?
By the way, I have to nominate this (background thread) as one of the more interesting IMS threads I have read:
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/boxst...injection.html
To those who have a DOF installed:
Year/model?
When was the DOF installed?
Miles covered?
Which bearing are you using?
Did you install it yourself?
General impressions.
In spite of the masses of information already out there, I cannot decide whether I should install a DOF or a single row LNE bearing (or do both).

I do. '99 C2. Single row bearing nstalled 8/13 @ 75k miles. 10k miles on it now. Had it installed with a new clutch when I bought the car. Install was reported to be straightforward (just like the video). No issues and it does not leak. I sleep easy.
The primary reason I have the DOF is that LNE had no dual bearing option and DOF did. Once opened up, the bearing revealed itself to be a single row, not the expected dual row. The engine is a factory replacement which explains the change.

Thanks ditto!
Huh - so I'm making a fraught decision between two options which each cost a few thousand while simultaneously taking a ~$22k gamble on my engine and you think it unreasonable to poll my fellow enthusiasts on their experiences with one of these (relatively new) options? I realize any IMS discussion is toxic but surely some questions are legitimate.
In any regard, if I wanted a binary response from the Rennlist population, I'd have framed the question in that manner.
