I have run my car down 1/4 mile against stock 370's and i only beat them by .3 seconds. Granted, if i were using slicks, i may get a full second faster.

I really hate getting sucked into these stupid arguments, but if you are going to quote facts, lets get them right. The turn key is $6300. lower torque numbers compared to twin turbo, sure, all SC kits make less torque. if you're referring to RCZ's dyno of 390hp/290tq, that was on a very low reading mustang, which he put down 256hp and a bit over 200tq stock. on a dynojet he put down 445hp/335tq in near 100 deg florida heat with the same setup.
comparing different cars/dynos is apples to oranges, my point is the kit obviously makes good power, and is capable of even more (squeeze did 470/360 before maxing out his MAF's).
When I was considering kits, I was on the fence about what setup to go with, i chose the stillen because I got a great deal on it, but I would be equally as happy with a GTM kit. I am not some fanboi, im just being pragmatic here.
