vertex kit...he was the first turbo'd GS430 in the US back in the day. He still has the GS and smoked a corvette several times (witnessed it) with all that stereo junk in his trunk. funny times...

He probably hangs out at the 3rd gen more often now that he daily's a 3rd gen. Ryan is his name. Good friend of mine.

He didn't go all out? 5lb boost. No internal mod? 365rwhp... wouldn't that be too much for the engine?

I would say as long as there wasnt any KR should be fine. Hes got plenty of gas going through though.
