It is really designed for the coupe front end, but it works fine for the new sedan bumper too.

I thought about shifting the ICs inward (toward the center of the car)a couple of inches, but I didn't feel like making new mounts.

You are a brave man. I hope you are staying off the boost as much as possible. I know it's a lot harder, those bad boys spool up quite fast.

It's an "SS" (super sleeper).

I'm really tired the dorky comments are too hard to resist right now.

Send some of them my way. No one ever seems to want to race me. I have only had two good races, a non-turbo 911 (I killed it) and a new CTS-V on the freeway from ~50-120 which I also killed.

I'm trying to set up a drag strip trip this weekend before it gets too hot out here.

And you didn't post any dyno's or come tell us?

What do you think of it compared to the TN? I can do a Stillen vs Greddy review but have never been in a TN car.

the boost on sooner and stronger than the Turbonetics. Peak torque is about the same, but I now have a much broader powerband. The TN tended to drop off at 5500.
The greddy stays strong up to about 6400 or 6500.

The cars sounds better with the greddy, too!!!

sorry for being brief; I am at work and have alot to do right now.

I'm just glad to hear you like it more. I almost went ST but decided to take the plunge and am so happy I did.

I took a bath on the TN ST, but I was just not happy with it and I am fine with it....Many love the TN, but I didn't like its implementation or the results.........This could be because I self installed it, and I looked at how TN performed their task. They achieved what they wanted from the kit, but it was less than I desired. It was too much like a "junk yard turbo" setup. (i.e. wierd pipe routing design, small piping, mounting the turbo to the A/C compressor, etc.) Don't get me wrong, I think TN makes great turbo, wastegates, BOVs, etc, but this kit is not their best work. I think the kit that SFR is makign for these cars is more aloing the lines of what TN should have done.
