Not an S, a 3.6. That car REALLY pulls hard. I mean 996 turbo hard. The German tech said that my 3.8 would gain the same hp as the 3.6, but mine would have more ft. lbs. at the bottom end, "significantly more" he said, I'd like to see that. I also learned that the published price includes all labor. I know it's a lot of money but damn, all that power and reliable too? Crap. It takes about four full days to install. You don't hear any whine from the supercharger and you really can't see too much in the engine compartment. Next time I'm there I'll take pics. I've thought seriously about getting the kit but am going to wait for the new turbo and have them sprinkle their magic dust on it instead.
