Capt insano's car was running like a champ at the airstrip event, his car is a 6mt, the autos were having transmission problems from the power. More RB guys are going to the track (1/4 mile) than single turbos. And the singles that do go aren't properly set up to put down the power. RB turbos or Vargas stage 2 can't be at all compared to the large single power wise. As for performance, it has nothing to do with the kit, just the driver and his suspension/fender/tire mods.
Shiv is running a modified suspension, different rear gearing & drag slicks. He is just .3 seconds quicker and 2.5 mph faster then a car running street tires, stock gearing, thousands less in parts, 100+ less horsepower & a slipping transmission.

Since his car is the only one doing it out of ten or twelve cars with the ST I don't really see the point.
