Good point! I was thinking those HPF kits were a bit cheaper. Their cheapest one is listed at $13k for the low end stage I. Hard to argue with their results though.

they make good stuff but over priced in my opinion. Tony over at EC told me, the hardware for the turbo conversion on the srt6 was only $8k.

True. One has to pay in order to play.
The Stage 2 kit with clutch, and sub frame reinforcement, as well as two transport, was near $25-26K.

Like Warp Speed and Hyper Drive. Do you fill it with Dilithium Crystals and tell the Captain, "I'm giving er all she's got captain." Have you hit warp 9.9 yet, the theoretical fastest speed anyone can go except for Q who can go any speed???
