sounds like you are ready to me!
Did you buy your short shifter??? or do something to it.
Also are you using RPS's stage 3 clutch and flywheel....
What turbo kit are you going with, also are you planning on using the stock intake manifold or are you planning on getting a modified one made??? IF so let me know, I would like to speak to you about this.
Email me privately if you wish

what turbo kit are you buying?.......boost is good

i was thinking about the f-max kit w/ the water injection and nos. but i still need to do some research on which one will fit my needs the best. it will probably end up being a mix!
as for the shifter it was just cut down, i pulle dthe idea from one of our own who said he cut and welded it, thanx, i cant remeber who it was though, but it works.... u should have it done while ur getting the clutch pulley and flywheel installed. and all the pulleys and flywheel are unorthodox w/ a vitek stage 3.

i highly reccommend staying away from the f-max kit..there manifolds crack...and warp witch leaks boost and creates all kinds of problems.....toyomoto makes the best quality kit out there and there very high quality......scott hureau just did a toyomoto kit and was very happy with it...it also allows for any type of upgrade in the future you would like....scotts car at 10psi and stock compression is a hell of a fun car..i believe it went 12.80s @109 on street tires....:eek:
toyomoto has replaced many f-max manifolds and piping from the f-max kits due to poor quality work....email if you need more info id be happy to help...and so you know the watter injection is not needed and often goes bad
