SRT Turbo Kit for GS300/IS300 for under 4K
Details are in the Swift Racing Forum!
Here is the post
I had to go see this product myself, and let me tell you, I was IMPRESSED! So thats why SRT has been soooo quiet?!?!?!?? hee hee hee
Anyway, I saw the IS that was used for development, and research, and these guys put in the R&D! The kit looks clean, and the sound of it! Man, I was like "WHOA!". Didn't get a chance to get a test ride, but I did see the dyno chart. AND THAT FREAKIN PRICE?!?!?!? Under 4K? I'm jealous!!!
No turbo lag! Straight torque curve! And the units are ready to go! I know there is a buzz on IS300.net, soooo if you know that these going to get snapped up! Now I have to worry about the Lexus little brothers (IS/GS3), coming at their big brother (GS4)! Thanks SRT!

If all is as you say, it looks like SRT has just stomped there foot down once again....This time in a market where there is a rather large demand for that type of product for that type of price....Way to go SRT!!!!!! Tiny

But, even with the stage-1 you would smoke MANY MANY cars you would have previously lost to...
-Mustang GT
-2002 Maxima
-GS400/430
-2003 350Z
-WRX
-Audi S4
-BMW 540is
-Benz E430
etc.,etc., etc...........

Still thats 3 grand more and its a big 3 grand you know what I mean. $3700 is a great deal for forced induction and its a turbo even. still alot of dough however its affordable for some when $6 or$7000 is a little out of reach or just more than most will spend on a mod.
