But then, the bashing about the APS ST kit's ground clearance didn't belong in the APS ST post either. It's all fair game folks.

Sorry that the original guy's thread got off track, that wasn't the intention.

WRONG... Nobody ever posted something marketing a Turbonetics kit in an APS thread. And Turbonetics NEVER posted in an APS thread. The same respect should be applied...

wow george,
are you on the sales team for APS, because i have never seen a more rude hijack of a thread on this forum before. i guess you will take the chance to sell your kit, and bash the others at any chance (like a used car salesman). the bottom line is that there is plenty of ground clearance on the turbonetics kit, with the feed-line running under the tranny. i have seen it myself. and the car is damn fast.

we all know that you make nice turbo systems, and you guys certainly know what you are talking about, but i assure you that you are doing more harm than good by whoring yourself on every turbo post in this forum. perhaps you should read the forums, use the mouse, but stay away from the keyboard for a bit.

am i wrong?

this thread started as a showcase for a proud new owner's toy, and it should be left at that. congrats on the new turbo kit.

Chad

You have to take off your bumper to clean the air filter, or is there enough room to get it out?

I didn't say anybody posted anything about marketing, if you read what I posted, I said bashing. Plus, why would Turbonetics waste their time doing it, you have been doing it for them for the longest time.

Sorry, I agree this kinda thing doesn't belong in this thread and this is my last post about this, I will not argue further and it's definitely not worth my time. I will not hijack this forum any longer because I respect the guy who posted it and both Turbonetics and APS. I just hate it when it's unfair. All I have to say is what goes around comes around. (i.e. ground clearance)

Mojo, not my war, let these guys start their own thread. It's not fare to the majority of members to read through this unethical sales banter.....
Taurran, Turn the IC around......LOL I agree, my thoughts were to spray it black as well.
Turbogt, Thanks bro......
xxlbeerx, Yes, there is room to remove the filter, but not alot specially if you have big hands.
Bwzabodyn, yes, the beam stays.....
Captj3, with a manual boost gauge tapped to the wind shield and blasting through the traffic of Albq., I saw 8.5 max.

I'm not posting pwr/tq numbers due to on going tuning in conjunction with Technosquare. Car is night and day over stock, but working on timing curves and a/f. Out of the box turbonetics reflash at this altitude(5,200ft) averaged 10.1.....Way too rich.
I'll be doing some international travel over the next two weeks, umm new products...?
I'll stay in touch when I can and post finals numbers when I return.
