Default Calling Tim Murphy . .

Been trying to get hold of Tim - I think I'm ready to upgrade to Stage 3 - need to know upgrade cost (from Stage 1) and lead time.

Thanks!

I'm the first one up from another 1am night in Tim's garage

I'll be back at his place this afternoon. If for some reason he hasn't seen your message, I'll relay the info. I'm pretty sure he has everything in stock for the upgrade, just needs to be boxed up.

Rob,

I hope your statement "I'm Ready" means you also have wider tires....you are going to need them with the Stage 3!!!!

Refreshing motor. Almost finished swapping auto to manual transmission. 295s in back (still probably won't be wide enough!)

Dang!! You've been busy!! The 295s will work, even though that is about minimum for "Stage 3 Power" :-)

Except for financing... I'm ready too.

Please PM me an 'estimate' to go to Stage 3 from Stage 1.

I'd like to have an idea of how much I need to save up.

I do not have prices for upgrades off hand, I'll have them later today (unless Tim chimes in sooner)
