Don't get me wrong, its no cake walk. You need fully plan the car's driveline to make it work. If you do that then you'll be fine. Read STS's website, and a few turbo books, Maximum Boost by Corky Bell is a good one and know how your engine management works so you can safely tune your car. I don't have a dyno at the shop so it a bit of a long process but I can feel the power getting there on the PT-57.

Sorry Kendall I was out playing in the rain.

Its funny to roll on the gas in 5th gear at 55 (1750 RPM's) and listen to the turbos snap those 345's loose under the car.
