Yes, but very interesting if you don't plan on Stage 2

This is looking better and better with the "rumored" price of S2.

You got that right! I gotta make sure I keep track of those guys to see how it goes with the SRT's.

If anyone can get info on who is making them or a web link or something please post.

thanks

www.turbochargers.com I think these are the guys that had a hand in upgrading and tuned an srt4 to 501whp

the S2 on the SRT's is retailing at something like 1599 with the toys, 999 w/o. I dunno - one can get much more in the aftermarket, like a greddy e0-1 with the eManage.

Shimmed wastegates are the rage now for all turbos, good idea and lots of track time behind the modification.

This may well be a viable option along with a few other mods in liew of the S2 fiasco. (If you don't think you are being jerked around, wake up and smell the coffee!)

Remember how our gas prices went from $.50 to $1.50 back in 1973-4?

If you want to charge WAAAAAAY to much for an item, create a shortage!

I think this 500 kit thing is total fabrication!!!!![?]
