Man, F.I. stuff is SO nice. If I wasn't in LS Swap land... that would be the kit I would get. I love how they take pride in all their stuff.

They do & in the beginning, I was over 90% sure I was doing an LS or LT swap

But after multiple calculations both ways; couldn’t achieve the power level for the $

And after seeing Spooler get his VQ done with the Darton Sleeves at a Race Engine Shop

I threw my hat in the ring

Just gonna keep boost conservative with the built 7A from IPT

And hopefully be able to enjoy the Z & relearn a whole bunch

Nope, no money transactions yet...as won’t know until everything is opened up

Even though trans was shifting well when removed; it does have 125k on dial
