You got it.

Besides, there is ALWAYS somebody who's faster than you are. As long as we keep it playful & competitive, I'm all for it.

I will drive to Texas w/ my GS3 once you are complete. I need to get out of DC for a little fresh air.

Let me know.

It all depends, but I would like to have a GTE and a six speed in the GS. On the older Gs it will be a lot easier to do NA-t. Newer GS has the multiplex ECU and VTT-i system bad bad for turbo.
