sounds like the ST at the end of the thread title should just be out then...since its almost all different now.

Nothing new, soo much hacking to the kit piping change that its now almost all new piping probably...and not just some piping change and a better flowing turbo as we were led to believe with stg2...

I knew i made the right decision myself..for those of you that know about my project thats on going.

Good luck craig...hope u can show us some new results soon

Thanks. And yeah, I wouldnt be surprised if my kit ends up being very similar the PL kit with Turbonetics components.

I love custom work, though. It's not just going to be "Turbonetics_ST_15391".

dude my hats off to you for having the patience to do this. I can't hardly stand to wait anymore and I'm just reading about it. I know it will be worth the wait when you get it back.

All I want to know is will this car be ready for the 24th?

It better be, because I have larger NO2 jets waiting for it!

And Craig, I'm not necessarily calling you out but with my new set-up I haven't even come close to a close race with anyone and I'm looking for one...

I hope so. I'll run you if you it is.

Of course, I'm well aware how it's not all about power. I've never driven on DR's and will need some seat time to get used to the power, tires, and clutch. How do you think my 295 DR's would compare to those slicks you're rolling on?

I'm not sure. Haven't been able to get ahold of JT this weekend.

I assume that if it had I'd be the first to hear.
