I would think that with close to 300rwhp, they'd be gettin' a heck of a lot of the GS4 guys too! ...and thats only stage 1! A stage 3 car will have tt supra like freeway power.....aaaahhhh...can't wait!!

With 300hp, the car gets to 60 in 5.8

With 345, would you say 5.5 and below?

There is one for the GS430, actually more than one. Wait a few weeks and SRT should have all the info up on how much HP and $$$ it'll cost.

Well guys, I talked to Mo earlier today and I was convinced that this Turbo Kit is for real. So I went ahead and purchase the Stage 2 w/ a Tranny Valve Body Upgrade and a Tranny Cooler.

This includes:
Turbonetics 57 Turbo, all necessary hardware, Front mount intercooler, hard piping, injectors, plugs, and SRT Engine A/F Computer. 7.5 PSI Max Boost.

I can't wait for them to ship it and have Ed Lujan from Keyes Lexus to install it. I'll give you guys all my updates when it's finished. It will be done by the end of August so please have patience cause I'm trying to keep mine. I'm trying to convince Mo to ship it early for me so I can have it for the Big Meeting in Mid August. We'll have to wait and see.
dude thats awsome! besure to keep us updated ... and offcourse pics !

how much was the stage 2 kit??? and how much HP to the wheels??

Ahh......the sweet whistle of turbo......there's nothing quite like it. Are ya'll also getting blow-off valves to help the turbo breathe better?

It comes with a Turbonetics open air blow off valve... Not really sure how good it is compared to a Greddy or HKS blow off valve.

Is this for stage 1 or stage 2? Looks like it's stage 1 numbers if I'm not mistaken.

Yeah stage 1. What are the times for the M3's again? Can we beat them with a Stage 1? What would it take to make the car run in the mid 12's? I have a friend with a Roush Mustang that runs 12.3's-12.5's that I want to beat the pants off of. Also the guy with the M3 says that he has the fastest luxury car in town. Not after this hopefully!

Hubbard, I would say that it would take at least a stage 3 + awesome suspension to get our heavy car into the mid-high 12's.
