Hold on a minute........ Mariusz? Do you think you can stir up the bee hive and just run off??
What I mean is:
Better than one turbo would be two.......now continue where you left off you big tease......
I thought you already took your car to SRT for the SC about 4-6 weeks ago? I have been waiting for you to post results of the Stage 3.....
Did you go another route???? Please share, Tiny

I called Mo, about 4 weeks ago and that was when I got the scoop on the turbo setup. The only condition was that I could not say a word to anyone. That is why my car had to wait another 3-4 weeks to be fitted with turbos

Mariusz - pistons? turbos? what are those for???

Last time I heard these parts are required for 'top of the food chain' grocery getter.

You know, when I was getting my Stage III installed I asked Mo what would be "next' for my car. Looks like you are taking that road!
Mo had nothing but good things to say about you as well about your car when I was there.

I'm guessing you don't need to lower the compression on stage 1?

Default OMG, OMG

And i was going to drive down to PHR. Good timing.
questions for SRT:

- where's is the intercooler?
- what's the waranty?
- does stage 1 hang with the new M3?
- how much to upgrate from stage 1 to stage 2 (if stage 1 can't handle the M3 and i can't wait)?
- is the stage 2 the same with stage 1 with frontmount intercooler (about 30 hp different)?
- any legal issue (i'm in denver colorado)?

i have an 99 GS300 (3 years i've been waiting for this)
Thank you

Mariusz - Didn't know SRT was releasing that top secret info to the public yet. Take a guess of whose GS SRT spent months doing the R&D on? I'll give you 1 guess..... hee hee hee

i have gobs of tools but an not gonna take this item under my own belt. i don't even like installing simple suspension parts by myself.

some guy here just purchased and TC and LSD in preparation for a supercharger so i'll go where he went

Bravo. Thanks for stepping up; it's products like this that get me excited about keeping the GS and further building out a sleeper not to be jacked with.
