They have. But this kit will work with the 300 C SRT-8 and the Charger SRT-8. And who knows... maybe we'll even make one for the Challenger.

Just curious to what kind of total weight that system adds... its already a very heavy car. Im sure with the power it will put down the weight wont be a huge issue but Im just curious.

Looks very nice BTW

Ken,
As you know Dan Bills and FLP have a great reputation and I'm confident you would agree that there can't be to many people who have not heard of or do not know about their shop or what's in it. At the November VetteFest when people asked me who does my engine work and I replied Dan Bills at FLP, the consistent answer was "yea I hear good things about them". It would be fair to expect some friendly "pushback" when you post a Mopar on the Corvette Forum instead of an update on the "turbo project". I did laugh at your comment about GM spark plugs in the Mopar, good one.

Frank, It was only a joke and thats all, Yea we know there is going to be feed back on a Mopar on the vette forum, It's just fun. By the way your car looked good at the Vette Fest show, You and Jason did a great job. Ken
