The blue car is mine. I didn't have any issues mounting the spoiler and it does use the stock holes. The only difference between the stock spoiler and that one is that the stock one has studs that you put the nuts on to tighten. The SLP GTX Gen.2 spoiler has screws that you tighten down. Makes it a little hard to mount by yourself. I'm sure that i have pics somewhere of the inside of the truck lid. I have a trunk mat on the decklid now, so i can't take pics.

Yes, keith's car is awesome. It sucks being at a carshow with him, because he's gonna win (i vote for him as well).

The Bonneville GXP rims are awesome. Pics don't do the car justice.

I would've liked to go to this but couldn't.

Who else in Ohio is running a CSC? I'm guessing that pic wasn't an ohioan...

CSC is a Belt driven turbo system. I just wasnt able to see which car had it on.

i might decide to sell it but i dont have the box that it came in to ship it out again.

I got that spoiler as soon as it came out. Unless they changed something, then it should work. I know that other spoilers don't lineup, but his one did for me.

Not aware of any car that has a CSC. I know that there was a top end swap GT (white), rear turbo GT (bronze mist), MP112 GTP (white), top end swap (red) this may be it? and a turbo GTP (blue pace car). I'll have my Gen.5 swap w/ the LS1 TB and SLP MAF sometime soon, but other than that, i thought none of them had any kind of mods, atleast like the CSC.

01 GT: maybe some of people buy knockoff spoiler that what some of them need to drill it. Remember my old warped slp 1 spoiler? man, that's horrible lol I'm glad it was put behind.

Tim has got it on the nose... a CSC is in fact a centrifical super charger and for that matter so is a turbo charger. The only difference being one is driven by exhaust gases and the other by a belt, thereby eliminating the need for the extra exhaust plumbing. Paxton superchargers have been around for years and they are essentially the same thing. The setup simply poses more problems on the GP due to cramped underhood confines and the drivebelts being on the opposite side of the engine.

CSCs offer a few benefits over roots type blower. The boost level builds like turbo thereby making less shock to the trans...but boost comes on faster than a turbo setup since it doesnt have to wait for the exhaust turbine to spool. I believe it has less parasitic drag than a roots blower as well.

A pretty hot lick setup if you can float the change.
