No biggie. I get my car in 4 weeks so it's all good. It will probably head out to get the connecting rods done after the surgery at SRT so I can see some 600RWHP+ numbers and put you 500RWHP guys to shame . JK. It' gonna be lovely seeing GS4 TT's running around. This should also bring the resale value up just as it happened with the TT Supras. If anyone ever thought about buying a used 98-00 GS4 with low milage, now its the time because they will soon be worth a little more $$.

Just curious if anyone contacted any car magazine editors about this TT for the GS400/430. I'm sure this could hit front pages on magazine's like "TURBO", Super Street, MotorTrend, etc. This is a huge step in the car aftermarket industry. The amount of power it could put to the wheels is simply stunning... I would love to see a GS on the front of any mag...doing a burnout of course!

I like to see the Lexus version of SRT. Just right the AMG used to be the MB tuner and now MB adopted the AMG as part of their high performance models. Who knows in future this may happen.
