I'm going to a shop to get it installed.

However after reading through the directions a bunch of times i've come to the conclusion that it really isn't all that complex.

Lacking the tools and space to do it i've decided this was the way to go though. Much respect to those who do it themselves.

Big recommendation from Beltfed on this one. Plus just from asking among friends on the island everyone who's heard of them knows how good they are.

Thanx. I've actually used them before and would higly recommend them. The last time I was there, they just finshed supercharging an FX35, and that thing sounded sweet when they fired it up, and revved it a bit. Dont worry about a thing, your car is in good hands.

Just picked up some more stuff today:



Also the Rotora BBK and rear rotors/pads should be here in time for the install.

Yeah that was this one:



They've done some pretty badass installs over there.

Got delayed a week so i'll be dropping her off on Tuesday and we'll take it from there. Damn this waiting shit is tough.

As far as the Watter Wetter goes, as you know during the S/C install the radiator has to be drained so i picked up a bottle and i'll add in some cap fulls.

Reduces coolant temperatures by as much as 30ºF. Its pretty cheap and i've heard good things outside and inside this forum about it.

Thanks, i've seen it in stores and was wondering.

As soon as you get the SC on, give us the details. Are you going with the HBP ?

Yeah it looks like that will be on from the start.

Plenty of 93-94 octane to go around here.

Oh ok, yeah if you can’t 94 wholesale out there just mix your own.

How much does that 100 octane cost a gallon?

$6 a gallon ! It will average about $3.50 per to run a 94 -95 octane. It will be worth it to run the HBP safely.
