Nice job on representing us Plumber1! I just thought I'd check in here and say hi since it's been a while. I finally stopped being a tight *** and ordered a few things for mine.
ARH longtubes/no cats
Corsa Sport
Wideband A/F gauge
Boost pressure gauge
It's been a while so here's the rundown. Truck currently has the RST add-ons and the old Wheel 2 Wheel Rotrex base kit. (non-intercooled) On a super conservative tune (W2W's) it made 300rwhp/335rwtq with 130-140 flipping degree IATs!
I'll get numbers up after the exhaust and gauges go on..that way we actually know how much boost it's making. I'll be surprised if it doesn't make at least 40 more hp. If it doesn't fare as well as I hope I'm going to put a meth kit on it to control the IATs and find out where I can get a smaller pulley!

As far as I know, the shackles that the RST's come with are the longest you can buy. There is two sets of adjustment holes on the ones that the RST's come with. I moved my leafsprings to the upper set of holes and it seems to have leveled out the back end of my RST. There are a whole bunch of posts in this thread about it. You just have to look for them.

as far as regency, they are done for. but if you read through this thread youll learn what to watch on these trucks and what problems we have had. there are shops out there selling rst parts but watch yourself some of them are hacks.
welcome to the rst family/curse.
