I'll be the first to tell you that w/o forced induction....you probably don't need one. On the 300's I'm not sure that the TC will do what it does for the 400's. Just not enough HP there to make a difference.

This is just my opinion and someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

I have to disagree! An aftermarket TC can be beneficial to all cars regardless of how much power it makes. If you want a better launch, it's one of the best buys you can make. If i had a shop to install one, i would buy one without hesitation.

Contact Steve Ganz (Gonzo4u@earthlink.net) for the best price on one. I am 95% sure that the GS 3 uses the same aftermarket TC as the IS 3, but Steve will definetly know.

You're welcome to disagree, but If it were my $1000....I would spend it on something else. An N/A 300 is not going to benefit enough to warrant that kind of expense. It is afterall your money, so spend it as you wish. Just my .02.
