The offer still stands on the help. When you get it done do you mind taking me for a ride? Mine is an auto too and I just came into some cash and I'm thinking about getting one too. Do you have gears? I was thinking 3.73's butI think I heard defleshed say he had 4.10's and loved it. I'm just curious b/c with our current gear ratio I wouldn't think we would get into the powerband quick enough and also would have as much SOTP well you achieve full boost?

i got 4.10's and have no intentions of downgrading. it will be fine. ill probably do the install myself. ill just get a hand from 1 or 2 guys in my PLT. not sure if i can get it in this weekend. still waiting on some componenets. after i get it in i have to scedule a dyno to get accurate air/fuel. make sure its not too lean or too rich. we can certainly go for a ride when i get it in

Btw, I should be buying mine in a few weeks like I said. I'll have to get it put on before I go home and have to explain to my wife why I spent 5,000 on parts on a new car. Let me know how it goes b/c I might try and do it myself. It can't be too hard.

You can do the fuel pump, but the injectors will have to wait. Honestly, the injectors are probably one of the easiest things to do on the install, should only take maybe 20 min. If you decide to tap the pan ahead of time, just make sure you plug it and don't use the return fitting, as the pressure in the pan will blow oil out of the return tube. I just found a bolt that matched the drain bolt and plugged mine until I could get to installing the S/C.

Congrats on the kit, you'll love it.
