Fukuyama's CET process is very strong. You'll have fast cells for a long time, plus as mentioned, the service is second to none. No matcher is really going to stand out in performance because all matchers match the same cells. You have to look at the top winning cells, and Fukuyama has been in the top 5 at all major events. I'm very happy with these cells, they have never let me down.

Guys guys guys. What are you all so work up for?
Let it rest. If some guys think that other matchers are more worth their money, then let them buy other stuff then.
For me, if i pay for an item and it works, i will buy more.
If it doesnt work, well there is always other alternative.
I don like to compared the same stuff but difference source.
There will be no ending to it.
I have tried FUKUYAMA's 1.17+ packs and love them.
Of cos i will buy more.

Guys,
I'm NOT dissing FukuYama or any of their employees! I'm just stating a fact.
I bought 1.17+ cells, charge them at 6amps linier. I have 2 chargers, a Novak Millenium pro and a LRP Pulsar Competition. I know how to treath my stuff. In the past i was sponsored by ESP, who have stopped their bussiness, then switched to GM because i got great cells from them and then tried packs from a small but well known matcher in Germany, VIOL. Granted the price of the Fuku packs is good, but they don't compare to my older packs. Yesterday was proof enough for me. I had a TCS race here in Belgium where i used VIOLs for qualifying and the Fuku's for the finals. There was a lap difference of 0.2 sec. The fuku's were slower at top speed. Punch wise i felt no difference, but the VIOL packs are 8 months old.
Again, I'm not trying to offend anyone.
Regards

No offense taken. It's your choice who you purchase products from. Thanks for the review. If you say your other packs are older, than they most probably are older generation cells. Fukuyama is processing the new GP cells which are the shorty cells. There could be a difference in performance between the two.

To John, Yes the older are the bigger cells. The Fuku's are the new shortstack cells.
To Tres, It was the 3rd time they were used.

Hardriven,
Any way to see a listing of your lap times? I'm NOT questioning your driving abilities, but perhaps you could have been off a little on some of the laps. .2 difference per lap isn't that large of a gap, don't you agree? That's like taking one or two turns a little wide.
Again, DO NOT take this as a personal attack, it is not meant as one.
My advice: Keep trying the fukuyama, they should get better after a few more runs.

Since i ussualy use my racepacks about 15 times over a period of 3 months, and then sell them on, i will see if there is truth in what you guys are saying.
I will report back on this.
