I would say once the kit is complete and ready to ship.. install time on a stage 1 kit would only be a matter of a few hours to install.....3 tops...

Gray how does the car drive in regular condition, coz I am waiting for my. I got me from clublexus I am just waiting for it, I talk to Mo at SRT he told me he did some improvement on the stage one that will give about 100 rwhp did you get the upgrade. You say you change the crank shift should I do that, or not does it make a big difference. Sorry for all the questions I don't know much about cars.

It drives fine under normal conditions. I have the greddy exhaust on it and at idle it sounds quiet. It really is not loud at all for the supercharger or the exhaust until you romp on it. Yes I did change the Torque converter. With the power I will be pushing it was a smart thing to do at the early stages so I don't have to worry about it.

SC300

The reason my car is comming along faster and brian had to wait a while is for a couple of reasons. Alot of the SC was designed off brians car. My car was second to be tunned out so it came together pretty quick. Also I am there with Mo helping him and turning wrenches when I am not at work or at Team lexus working. As for the hrs power differences Yes I have a dyno sheet stage one added some things and the boost changed from brians car to mine.

Hmm I think the closest is SRT. Maybe SHINKA racing (SP) can in NJ. but it would be a SRT SC.
What about it Brian anyother places??

SC300 I have to get the dyno sheets scanned in to post first. The psi was at 5 and the changes are the injecters.
