No body kit is a good thing.

Re: big bore kit for 420a

We had a big part in a build by a kid that lives down in Rochester who had a GS 420a. In the end, and three years into his continuing project he finally made about 380whp on my Dynojet. But the headaches, crazy $$(he had an unlimited budget) and pain in the ass it was to get to that point were just not worth it. He said the same many many times. Basically wished he had never started modding it. He spent at least three times what it would have cost(to make similar power) if he had a factory turbo dsm.

In the end, he sold it and bought an MKIV TT Supra.

And btw, Nash was on my dyno(just furthur proof of the claim).
