Yup...now I am looking at stuff for my S. Looks like the Tein Flex w/EDFC is my next mod, then maybe some Bride Pros, building the motor, some wheels for the street, new turbo, new intercooler, then we will see. Of course if I finally get around to getting a new car, the coilovers will be the last thing I will buy for awhile.

Alright, the Brides and wheels can be put on hold, just saw that a local guy is putting down 320 WHP with an SC, AC, pulley...40 WHP more than I am, time for some more POWER!!!

Trent, you are putting down 280rwhp with a turbo right.

But your torque curve probably rises faster. Don't get me wrong. I am N/A for now and am a huge SC fan. But I recognize that the turbos provide more low-end torque.

Lastly, why the Flex and not the RA's. I like the RA's better from what I read!

It seems that the JRZ's are just too damned expensive.

They are the poop from what I hear and read. But they are also probably more than most people need.

In either case, if it wasn't for the fact they send a masked robber to your home and stick a gun in your ribs . .. .. most of us would opt for them.

To be honest one of the main reasons I am getting the Flex's is because of the EDFC, it would be so nice having that adjustability at the tip of my fingers. I actually had some RA's but never installed them, and got rid of them in favor of the Flex's, but then they sold out, but I am now on for the new shipment at the end of this month! WooT!

Rob-The torque curve is better, but I still am craving more power because with all the sound equipment in my car, it is slower than my daily driver...that can't happen, I wanted to build it before, but this just gives me an excuse to do it sooner. And I am putting down 285.5WHP on the same dyno the local SC guy is putting down 317.8WHP and his testing was done in hotter weather.
