$5K is a lot of money for any kit, and I think you would be upset with yourself if you decided you got the wrong kit. If there is such a thing
Post in the Western section, maybe attend a get together. I think in any case, with either kit, you will have fun.
I have been in the Western section. Seems kinda dead. What do you have going? I live in Orange County about 45 min from San Bernardino.

All real pricey, but gotta pay to play as it goes I guess.

I have spoken to rick. He was one of the ones that talked me out of the Procharger. Said STS was the way to go in fact he just taken the Procharger off his car and offerd to sell it to me! That alone told me something.

this is what has me most concerned with STS, as well as the fact that my car is lowered.

Didn't know Rick had a procharger on his car? I know he has the STS. And there are numerous reasons he could of switched out if he did. I'm gonna go with what I think will suit me best and not let anyone make my choice for me, that's why I am gathering all the info I can and listening to all opinions.

Orange county is a long way from the bay area though. We hang on NorCal-LS1 mostly for around here.
