Perfect for a street only M6 car IMO, lots of TQ down low = fun on the street, the sound is cool and it looks good when you open the hood. All depends on what you want.

I had it in my SS. Thing was fun and made 400RWTQ at 2200 RPM's and 500 RWTQ at about 3100RPM's, with teh 3.90 9" I had it made for tire ripping run. With the heads and around 8#'s of boost it peaked around 520RWTQ with 525RWHP running a safe rich tune. It is a fun street kit, its alot of fun, on the strip it performs well, but it has its limits, it comes down to what you like at some point. Depending on your goals will determine if its what you might want or not. LM Speed is a sponser on here PM him or give them a call if you have any questions. I have some vids of my car after our build before I sold it, go to my link in the sig to my website and look under the Magnacharged SS page it has the dyno sheet and the videos as well. Expensive. Yes it is, forced induction setups are, and the cost does not stop at the kits.

Procharger makes a nice kit too. My uncle has installed a couple on GTO's at a dealership and GM has maintained warranty on them
