I love how you're so calm, cool, and collected. Most people would have just said, "O man you only have 23 posts and you are talkin ****". You're a class act Trav!

He's got 23 posts but look at his join date, theres alot of people on here whos post count is low but have been members for years. Hell I've seen people post 10-12 times and their post count says "0".

Yep, post count doesn't equal knowledge, or experience in the real world. He could have 10,000 posts in the non-tech sections and we would never know. Just goes to show that even 99% of enthousiasts don't really know what's going on in the LS4 world. We're still seen as W-bodies, instead of LSx platforms.

I don't think that you have to worry about your trans if you use nitrous. You're not going to be able to launch it on the bottle. At best you would hit it at the top of first gear. I'd be more concerned about having the engine tuned for it.

No. It's a custom kit that is similar. Modular Turbo provided many of the parts and it is being built by Polk Performance in Alexandria, Arkansas. Rob at Modular Turbo is the best and he can get just about anything you need. The guys at Polk Performance build killer systems. They have reputation for making cars fast!

It should come in at just under $4000. I did some of the work myself though. I installed the injectors, meth, gauges, Kenne Bell Boost A Pump, etc. The shop is basically fabbing intercooler piping, exhaust and tuning. Polk Performance managed to get a 3" downpipe in there. It's a tight fit. They ran 3" pipe all the way out to the y-pipe with a cutout. Hopefully I'll get it back by this weekend.
