OK Folks My Vortech Project

Ok so here it goes due to my poll that I put up a few days ago I decided to go with the Vortech and forget about the Stillen system. Now I have done some snooping around and I found that DFWG35 and Randy's G both have AT's and THE Vortech and I assume they are happy with their setup I also notice that DFW has 400Whp I didn't know that was possible with the Vortech kit so I think that seems awesome (DFWG35 if you read this can you please confirm I read right) Also I wen't to my local shop here in the 818 called OHC Motoring and they quoted me $5700.00 installed I don't know much about their shop however they had a 05 G that they were about to install the Vortech on and they also said they have done it before so I have some confidence in them. (IF anyone knows of a better shop within 30 miles of LA that might do it better and maybe beat that price let me know.) One question tho this is really my last question about FI. On DFWG35.com I noticed he said he pulled a 12.7 1/4 mph ET on his Auto G has anyone else gotten numbers close to this? I would order my kit Monday if I am pretty sure that my G will put down at least a 13.5 so I can justify the cost and a 12.7 is almost unbelievable to me LOL so I wan't to know if anyone can give me input as to a ball park where my car will be? THe fool at OHC almost scared me away when he said a Sedan auto supercharged only pulled a 13.9 at LACR i think that is a really ****ty number considering the cost. But I dunno Vortech people Push me over the edge & convince me already so I can order this **** he said if I order by monday I'll be racing around by friday night.. So I'm a little anxious to get this over with.

My car btw is a 04' G coupe 5AT NO MODS other then my AEM intake which my understanding is that is useless once I get blown. SO Convince me!!!

Wish I could tell you some 1/4 mile times for mine but I need to add a few other things before that happens.
