Looks a lot like one that surfaced last year.

Chris, not sure if you know this but the gray PLP car has the bigger S.C. (Vortech) and the intercooler which is over $5500. The smaller Powerdyne S.C. ($4500) they offer does not include the intercooler and has less HP. However, after watching the race on Sat between a Stage one Turbo IS against PLP's white Powerdyne IS, I would say that $4500 is an awesome deal.... The race was neck & neck... Now, the race between the gray PLP IS against the turbo IS was a different story...

The Powerdyne is nice if you are looking for reliable horsepower for a daily driver. But there's not much of an upgrade path. If you are planning on continually increasing performance the vortech kit is the way to go. Gotta get Mike to complete a GS4 kit.

If that ever happens let me know. I wish we had an <=$5K FI option for our GS4 for reliable horsepower for a daily driver. I would get it done tomorrow.

He actually sold it earlier this year, I believe, with everything but the S/C.
