Paul, I just noticed your car in a Turbo Magazine XS engineering ad on page 81 of the December 2003 issue.
Great pic of the car

About the meet,

I my self won't be able to make it but I'm sure my father will be up for it, It's his SC, he just let's me take care of all the go-fast stuff.( it's fun when you get to spend someone else's money) ha ha
I my self drive a nissan
but if my father can make it, he will be happy to show off the beast (he's nuts about this stuff!!)
His name is Larry,
so i'll be sure to tell him about it..

Turbo has a "December" issue out already?

I talked to SRT today, seems that they dont do superchargers anymore. They have a twin turbo application for the sc430. Include engine rebuild, tranny rebuild, ecu, injectors.........35K Yikes!!! Hope my bonus check is good this year

35K that sounds about right.

did they say what they do to the engine as far as "re-build" goes?

like i said ,
next is new tranny, pistons, rods, full blue print and balance, a lil head work, and more boost! which all equals

Also told my dad about the meet and he got all excited so i would assume that he's gonna go.
is it Friday or Saturday?
