yeah..tell me about it...
and i beleive it retains the A/c and all factory components which makes it even more desirable for me. but, production begins in July which means we probably wouldnt see it till the end of the summer/early fall. i dont wanna have my car down for that long. decisions decisions!!

This sounds very interesting to me. I just went thru this on GMR twin kit though and have nothing to show for it yet except a big hole in my wallet from the deposit I put down. Also that kit was not going to allow keeping my air but they were working on a
way to keep it possibly.But since they are gone like so many turbo companies in the past thats all water under the bridge now.
So of course have the usual questions and will be pming Peter. APS is not a new company and has been around for awhile not sure exactly how long but think would risk getting a kit from them.
I am wondering if it keeps the air conditioning,if it hurts ground clearance much and of course how much down they want and when the kits should be ready.Not really into waiting months and months for them to get the final kit out after the deposit.
Anyway I will be pm'ing Peter on this asap.

No offence to APS, but its hillarious how many people will throw down thousands on a kit that isnt even made nor proven over buying one that is and that is very slightly used like a couple of us in the FS section have. (GMR, phamspeed, CAS, and Im sure a few others).

as long as the company is prooven as APS is amongst GTO and C5 forums than the kit should speak for itself when it comes out. in lookin at the C5 and GTO kits, i wouldnt expect the f-body kit to be any less quality.

Why do all turbo companies (except one) ask for deposits? APS seems like a big ol company, you'd think they could build 30 kits in house and ship when someone pays. 99% of the retail industry works like this, but we (you people) won't allow the LS1 industry to follow suit because your wallets are too big and memory too short. Not a slam against APS, just an observation. LS1 Turbo makers have the worst business model ever (well...its actually good for them since they can build kits at a low cost, although the margin is lower in the end IMO...oh well).
