thats bad man, let me ask you this, do you even know if any member in here has a handicapped relative? You could be stepping into a very bad area with that remark. I guess you are one of those people who have no idea how good they have it compared to others and dont mind making fun of them.

When I think of the word "retarted" the first thing that comes to mind is a young male (especially a white one) walking around in baggy cloths with his oversized pants hanging halfway down his legs flannel boxers hanging out and wearing a ball cap sideways with the air of attitude that he is the bomb!

OK, back on topic.

ZSteve, Shumby, and I have both asked this question and neither of us got a straight answer.

What kind of gain should we expect with the GTM kit with an aftermarket Catback Exhaust and Hi-Flo Cats? I don't know what exhaust Shumby is rolling with but I have all Stillen Exhaust mods except for the headers.

Pretty sure he answered ZSteve right here...I also see you've posted in that thread, so forgive me if I'm a little confused. That not straight enough for you?

I've been waiting for the CBE to be put on as well, so just like me, you'll just have to be patient.

It really depends on what you will do later upgrade wise. IMO if you stay stage 1 then GTM, if you plan to upgrade then Stillen may be wiser as you wont upgrade the SC just some other smaller parts. To upgrade with GTM I beleive you have to change the SC or part of it, Im not too sure. You need to do some more reading here and then make your decision. The GTM uses a tried a true FMIC where Stillen use a new water to air cooler that we havent seen in action yet. GTM is less expensive and the savings can be used towards the install price. Both will net about the same gains but I think GTM will be slightly higher when they show the new dyno with a CBE.

What are you looking to do with the car? Give us some more details about your driving/racing style or preferred type of track.

Best advice is hold on to your money and let other people go through the first run pain. What is 3 or 4 more months?

IMO if you are willing to drop this kind of money on a modification soley based on the forums opinion of what is best for you and your scenario then you may as well flip a coin...There is no right or wrong answer to your question.
