Now if it has lights, it's still white to white, but it's usually blue and black from the fan to the black wire in the house.

I was trying to hook up the black and blue to black. The way my grandfather wired the house is really weird. Took some thinking but I did finally get it going Saturday night. The electrician came out and put a piece of tape on the wrong bundle of wires which is what really slowed me down. Lol

Exactly why the internal debate is raging. SC is easier, single is more fun.

Five years of pounding mine on stock internals before a significant issue. I hope to find out if the motor is toast this week. I spoke with Seb on Friday and we talk about possible upgrades for my turbos. Seb is not a fan of the FI stage 2 turbos and said the stage 2.5 are definitely the way to go if you want more power than stage 1.

Definitely has a great rep, but it's overkill for my needs (and even for my desires). That much torque coming on that abruptly would probably do me in! Gotta work my way in gradually. Giggity.

Sasha’s kit is pretty easy to install. The difficult parts are shared with any SC install (mainly fuel).

With FI. Our options are becoming better and better now. Twins, Single turbos, 2 different supercharger set ups. And we got some hard numbers for each now. So the decision gets harder on which one.
