I makes me believe that the purchase price, while a bit higher then the norm, was completely justified because instead of spending countless hours researching compressor maps, pissing and moaning over wheel size disclosure, swapping turbos and tuning the configuration......I just installed and went. Not bad for a day's work. Too bad that motors gone now...........

It's a 3.0L with a stage 5. The complete 2.5 was bought by a close friend.

God that thing is going to haul. Surprisingly the VR stage 5 actually still spools okay on a stock 2.5(333p's car). I was shocking to see him realizing full boost at like 4200rpms. That just go's to show you how good John's stuff really is. Hopefully I will follow suit in a few more years when I get tired of this current setup(not likely).

Everyone knows I used to run 20psi to make 300rear wheel. The car is sitting at a honest 15psi and it pulls so much harder and acts the same way around town(spool up). I'm just in love with it all over again.
