yep...i dropped a 1/2 second off my time with a restalled stock verter...
allen there is more in yours if you can hot lap it...you will see a gain of 2 tenths or better for a couple since the turbo gets hotter every run and spools up better giving you a better et....that goes to anybody with a sts turbo system....

I was wondering that my self, It seems when i first leave somewhere after my truck sits, the turbo actually is kinda quiet and it seems like its not doing a lot till you come to a stop , then take off again and THEN , the turbo comes to life, must be heat related huh? I was wondering when i go to the track if just doing a good long burnout would be helpful for the turbo cuz after sitting it doesnt work as good as when you drive it down the road and get it warm, then its ON&#33;&#33; Any other STS guys notice this?

yep...a longer burnout will help...also let the truck idle in the staging lane....
