I know the guy who operates the company. Kevin is a good guy, and has a great product. I know the owner of the GXP that they had as the first to run a LS4 turbo.

Yeah that kit has been discussed a lot on a different forum. It has been in development for a while.
The Turbo GXP ran low 12sec in 1/4 and was having traction issues. So it couldpossibly go into the 11's.
Thats a nast sleeper.
even though pricey it is one of the most complete kits out there. The only issues is if you go with it you will need a beefed up tranny otherwise your stock tranny will be toast very fast. so if you put a good tranny and labor costs this thing comes close to $10,000.
If I had $10,000 just laying around yeah I'd get it, but I dont LOL.
