Sam sent Jimmy (2) tunes today. Each one a bit richer. One of them is going to be my final. News once we do.

Hi guys,

Short answer: Yes.

Truth is, my title claims this is Stage I. Sam was confident enough in this that he sent Stage II turbos, so it's actually a Stage II setup. Like you, I was wary of...

Hector did not have any photos in the manual for the oil cooler placements. He asked Sam to send him some, but none arrived by the time he needed to get it done. (Next day).
