Aluminized - Keep the costs low. As long as it reasonably clean and runs well I am in

Good suggestion. Thanks!
Could it ignite if dropped on the hot engine? Like metal portion of the manifold or something?
I need to find time to fix this. Just been too damn busy lately. My X-Wife and I had finally decided to split (After 2 years of being divorced and still living under the same roof), so I'll be shipping my *** out of the house into an apartment (with a garage!) over the next weekend and then settling in with the new place...
Sigh... The things we have to go through.

I have an indoor show this weekend (Sunday) at the miami beach convention center, so I guess past this weekend Im ready to start building when you are. I understand you might be a bit delayed concidering you recent move, so whenever is good for you.
If you could, PM me with the list of piping we made on the cardboard box so I can go by it.
Hope everything goes well with your move!

With the move though.. Yeah it is tough, but I am grateful we are on good foot, and we'll remain closest friends. We struggled as a couple before which led us to a divorce. After that we reattempted to keep it together, and managed to drag it out for some more, but eventually it turned into nothing more but 2 people living under the same roof for the past 2 years. Still having issues, still disagreeing on stuff. We both of our own will have agreed that taking this route will be much better for everyone, including the children.
Sad, but given the circumstances - necessary.

Ok, I think it is time to resurrect this.
No I haven't started building the system yet. No $$. Had too much going on lately. Going out, dating, setting up my place... But since people need a place to hang out, and discuss something Performance upgrade related, I figured I might as well get you guys to hang out here
Oh and I fixed the stupid boost leak I had.
It was the jet air hose that popped off it's nipple, down at the base. A huge pain in the *** to locate, even bigger pain to put it back on without taking off half of the engine. But finally after like 3 months of driving without being able to boost more than 7-8 PSI in 3rd gear, The car is all peppy again

Chrise's kit is a fine piece of work, kinda hard to compete here
My only way out is to make it cheaper.
Much cheaper! Which isn't very easy either. Making it perform better than greddy, should not be a problem.

Dating, is fun! And chicks reaaally dig my car
I am beginning to slow down though. Getting tired of waisting all the money.
The thing is, now I am beginning to look more into building, but before I begin, there is still 3 important obstacles I need to overcome:
1. Effen Christmas, with all the associated expenses
2. Paying off all that useless garbage that I need to spend money on for Christmas.
3. Saving up for the build.
But I am aiming to have it done by the end of spring. ****, Spring!!! Come to think of it: Spring... South, FL... Spring Break.... Ohhh Noooooooo
