If you search around you'll find that the SC's available to us don't really lay down the numbers that the TC's do.

this thread might help. I found it at the old forum. It's been shut down, used only as reference, so you can't reply to the topic, but you certainly can add comments and questions to this topic.

I forgot to add that I've got a 2003 Auto, and I read that a SC would be better with an auto.. does that change anything... I've got the "sports shifter" thing and everything, I dont know if that makes a difference.

Default Re: Death to the GK's!!!!!!!!!!

well,

#1.) is your 03 an 4 cylinder or 6?

#2.) if the answer to #1 is 6, there are a couple of SC's out for your engine. No turbo kits to the best of my knowledge. you "MAY" be better off going here : www.newtiburon.com although some of them are really pompous pricks.

#3.) if the answer to #1 is 4, the check out the speedfactor portion of the forums here. Tim (owner/manager of speedfactor) can help you out.
