Im not positive on what the hp #'s will be but it should be above 300 rear wheel hp. For stage 2 I think it will be running 8-9lbs of boost. Also I will be getting an aftercooler. I have no idea what the price will be for that yet. Right now im running about 5.5 lbs of boost.
I was thinking of getting a 5 speed but I think im going to stay with what I got for now.

Is that your white GS with the carbon fiber hood? That ride looks sick!

Nice... why dont you use a intercooler instead of an aftercooler? just curious, also have you done any 1/4 runs yet? I want to see what it runs dammit.. heheheh =) I know you got boost lets use it.... or maybe I am jsut a speed junky and love to see how fast I can go... has your top speed also changed since the SC was put on? I talked to MO and we are upping the top speed on my IS to around 170 that should hold me over for a while.. if I can hit 170 somewhere, Cough Cough I will let ya all know...

I think they are still deciding on what they want to do. We might use an air to water aftercooler or an intercooler.... you guys will just have to wait and see 
I actually was going to run the 1/4 yesterday. I went down to Carlsbad Raceway. This place is the worst track I have ever been to. I dont think Ill ever go their again. You have to almost go offroading through the dirt just to get in there. Anyway they track is in such poor condition you needed to wear a helmet no matter how fast or slow your car was. I didnt even think to bring my helmet. So I didnt get to run 
I will try and go out soon but next weekend im going road racing. I havent thought about raising my top speed. Im not too concerned about raising it though... I dont go for too many high speed runs.. but it does sound interesting...

IM me sometime it is easier to talk that way instead of makin post after post....
I am racing next week in the battle of the imports I hope unless it is full and I cant register... but I have never had a problem registering at the gate before so I should be good..

Black_IS300...Nice car bro. I really like your wheels. Is there any way you can post some more pics of your car so I can see the wheels a little bit better? That 1 shot that you posted doesnt really give me a good view. I would appreciate it! Thanks

Its not really whose better but how much hp you need ? The trd super charger will give you the lowest hp (guessing less than 100 ) but will give you confidence in its reliability . Also its not available right now . Still in development .
The area51 and srt will be about the same in there hp stages (1,2,and 3) . These are the tuners to go to if you want more than 100 hp . These tuners also already have cars running around with there kits .
