yea well i was gonna go hybrid but now since i got the manifold and wastegate i figure i spend the money on a full turbo.

There is a T70 for sale in the second gen section. Might be a nice turbo for DD/track weekends with some potential. Just thought I'd throw that in there... can't wait for you to be up and running.

BTW: Aspec manifolds are $895 + shipping and come with a lifetime warranty. I just got a quote for one last week. So, whoever posted that they are over 1k is wrong.

Another good mass produced mani that I have seen is the greddy SS unit that comes with their td07 fc kit. Really nice peice.

60-1

Hope the bid goes well. Who makes it? Everyone praises 60-1s so good luck... I think you'll be happy with a nice DD setup like that.

I'm workin on it haha. Still collecting the major components but I think that Cosmo I told you about is going to end up in the car during summer. I have a down payment on it right now... just waiting for the new credit card to come in so I can finance the rest!

I've already spoken with Jim at JPR and told him he gets to hold my engine lol. Cant wait to get this build going. Maybe when it gets cold up here I'll make a trip down to the sunshine state.
