Comments like that would make me close this thread immediately. Why not a phone call or direct email rather than hoping Peter (since he's ONE person from APS) will stumble across this thread?

You make it look like an insinuation is being made they havent helped in the past...

Are you kidding? It's a perfectly legit question and the vendor is in the best position to answer it. The tone of the question was fine. I think you read more into it than was intended.

True Peter does usually check our posts. But direct call or email might be better sometimes as well. Can't hurt to maybe try both methods.

I can't see them being able to take back the basic turbos if they have been used. Only if they are new. I am debating a bit over upgrading and mine have never been installed but really think the base ones will give me more power than I will ever use on the street and my car is street car. For serious race guys guess the big kit would be nice.

I thought it was mentioned it was like 1500 to upgrade to the bigger turbos??

The base turbos in the F body system will easily meet your power goals on a 377 cube engine.............I'd stay with the base turbos unless you plan on going to a larger cube engine in the future.
