As it is, they have lots of 9 second vettes and trans ams and camaros already and i even talked to two owners of them and they had no complaints. But not everyone likes cartek on here and i guess i'll either find out the hard way or i will be completely satisfied. But they said the STS turbo is a really good setup and thats what a lot of the 9 sec vettes and f-bods are using at cartek. So i am going that way. But i am sure superchargers get great results too. I am sure no one would disagree if i said, if you get the right person to build it, then all the probs you may hear about the super ot turbo charger system will be put to rest.

I've heard a few horror stories from F-body owners about them, enough for me to never want to take my car there.
