Kit is overall great. There is slight lag in first gear but after that the car just spool like a demon. No more freaking lag.

As you can see this car has been a big project . Well at least to me so it's been spending most if the time getting parts added. Have not hit the track yet. But that is the plan I'm planning a track day with some friends. I have taken it to canyon runs and I can tell you the suspension is just a beauty, pretty bad ass.

As for the 3.91 gears I don't have much on that because I didn't own a SS before it's hard to tell the difference. But from my V6 oh yeah huge difference . The shifting is way more solid . You throw the gear and it goes right it with no hassle.

Future plans are Turbonetics Stage 2 Turbo, Comp Turbo cam, increase boost and forged internals.

Then Twin disc clutch and 1000 hp axles.

It's GTS solar wing. Painted matte black .

Yeah got to love boost. As a matter if fact can't get enough so pretty soon I'll be increasing it.
