So curious does this mean APS is still selling f body kits..Peter said they weren't but not many of us believe a word Peter says.
And they do still have them listed on their website and LG and other places still have them listed on their sites..
And you did say gt35 upgrades didn't you?

Also what fuel system,what size injectors..?
And repeat where is torque numbers and why wasn't it done in rpm and is it dropping off up there or is that just wheelspin?

Sorry their is no torque. Are dyno was messing up on friday. Yes, this car was spinning very bad on the dyno. This car has a twin in tank fuel pump setup and 83lb injectors.

Hmm Peter said the domestic kits are no longer made..for f body and think also gto, vette..etc.
And after doing some digging and found some old interviews it does seem Peter Luxon and the infamous Dave Inall are the main guys at APS. I was never sure if Peter was just salesman or what his actual title at aps was but he does seem to be the main guy with Dave.
So I guess if he says no more domestic kits then its true but at the same time the kits are still up on the website.maybe they have some old stock and other dealers are still listed the aps kits so not sure whats up with that. Maybe Wormboy can clarify.

Since already have a kit not too concerned if they are still making them course availability of parts down the road is questionable I guess.As for GT35R Peter did offer I think to sell some GT35R upgrades at one time.

yeah i am haveing a problem with that. when i wanted to become an APS dealer some time back like 5 years ago. i got an email from a Dave. now i think this in dave inhall( or how ever you spell it) but i am not sure.

and i really dont want to talk to him. but i hate to say it but if i can get a GT35r that is a real garret turbo i would spend the money.

After we installed our first APS kit on a Z06 i went ahead and ordered a couple F-body and Corvette Kits to keep in stock. This F-body kit was our last one. These were ordered almost a year ago I think. I just took some nice pics of this car I will post later. I really wish I could get a hold of APS to get more kits from them. You cant beat the hp you get from the price of the kit.
