Our cars are very finicky. Some of the owners here with custom kits can chime in. It's not for the faint of heart. It's your hobby, but if you can do it with lots of patience props to you. Give me a brand new kit and this stuff is already over my head.

We're here to prevent you from months of downtime, spending more money in the end, and blowing up your motor... leading to more down time and more money spent. Get a legit kit with a good installer and you'll be up in running in a week.

Cost-wise, modifications of this magnitude is very costly. I spent a couple of years saving up for this project AND saving for a down payment on a house. It's financially wreckless, but I try to plan very well. I may be spreading myself a little thin this year, but I managed to achieve having a nice house and force fed car. It takes lots of financial planning and balance.

What he said ^^ and more, not for the feint of heart. Do it right the first time or you very likely regret it.
