Still trying to decide...

What did you pay (roughly) for your Radix new?

I think mine came out to about $4,500 with all the goodies. Add in a fuel system and intercooler and I'm around $5,500.

So really about the same cost as the Radix I'm assuming?

Including the water damage? Did your Homeowners insurance cover that?

When you get all the supporting mods for high HP yes. Only difference is that the STS can support much more HP WITHOUT beefing up the motor so it already makes 400rwhp BEFORE the turbo/blower.

I threw that last part in the screw with Blown and Moregrippy

IMO they are very similar in price if you get everything at retail. Thing is most of the STS dealers have real good specials and that pushes things in favor of the STS right now.

The Radix is a great deal for those wanting under 500rwhp

I think Tbyrne is having a GP on Radix on the SS board.

Ok, so here's the REAL deal...

The wife has okayed this "mod". I've read all the STS/Radix posts and at this point I'm really looking for the best 'bang for the buck' (aren't we all?).

So who can point me to the Vendor with the best price on the STS and/or the Radix? I'm leaning toward the STS right now, but I'm not sold on it.

And please, throw me some links for the cheapest STS/Radix!!
