?? are they any worse than anywhere else? or you're just saying breaking one so far from home - if it's the latter then you know you can get a ride from any of us... and i'm sure we'd pitch in for tow money (and take pictures)

That would be a great shot huh? The Redline getting towed out while the non-RL's drive out...

I remember when that SpeedMafia guy told me that my RL was a mistake that Saturn never should have made...

Shab's just pokin fun atcha... that procharger should put you right on par with the RL's powerwise... I dunno about the modded ones, the dynos I've seen of the procharger kit have been decent. Not as much as he mocked me with, but not bad either...

from everything i've seen w/ it being put on other cars, I'm expecting 210-220whp by the time I get it back to minnesota (will be less in denver cuz of air density)

i'm not sure if the build book would talk about the tranny - but the first thing they talk about replacing is the rods at 250hp. how would i know if i have the getrag one? 04 QC2 - not sure but for some reason i think that i do as I thought it said it on the window sticker (which i still have in my glove comp) - will have to look tonight.

Yeah, I'm just teasing. I think it's great that your (bc3tech) doing this to your car, I'm an enthusiast after all. Keep in touch with me on how things are going. I'll probably have some stuff you might want to use.....

Yeah, that seems to be what I've seen before, but that's damn good for a 150hp QC as a base. That will suprise the HELL outta some people...

Any thoughts on the internals, or just gonna push 'er and see? I've seen a few people that are pushing more power than what they say you can, but I don't know how much they compete with the car...
