Not trying to sell you a water/meth kit or anything, just offering input. Either way will work great and I'm sure your car is going to be (already is anyway) awesome.

Good luck!

KC what's the compression ratio on your engine?
I have installed an LMS kit and Steve from LMS told me never to remove the IC cause i will blow out my motor.
Intake temperatures will go skyhigh without it and with 12:1 ratio it's very dangerous removing it.
I have also a set of AEM water/meth kit and thinking to install it.
Will pm you for some more info on Water/Meth if that's ok with you.

If you ultimately need a tune, I know several outstanding HKS Pro tuners...

Send me a PM if need be.

HKS350,

Do you know the part number for just the intercooler?
The dimensions of the core it self would also be great if you dont have the PN
Thanks

John

No additional pulley on the crankshaft as i see.
Very clean setup.
I'm curious to see the gap between the S/C intake ellbow and the headers.
Can't wait to see it finished.
