Sweet! I built a very similar keezer as a gift for a friend several years ago. Are you a home brewer? Looks like you have a couple of corny's in there.

I take it easy and mope my way back to the lineup area and she is ready to go again once I'm up. I don't turn off my engine and push her or anything. I just run in. Yeah, I'm lazy. I suggest getting some T-clamps for the rad hoses when you do it. My OEM ones started to leak on my a short while ago. Now I have to drain the thing just to swap the temp worm screw one I have on there. GRRR

The CSF is on my list! I didn't know they had one with an integrated oil cooler, that is slick. I am going to get my kit on before I start doing the cooling upgrades.. want to see how the increase in capacity from the Gamma oil pan affects oil temps before I start making choices. Hopefully I have enough control over my right foot to limp along until I figure out the upgrade path I want to take... I don't have any plans to track the car.

So whats next for everyone else currently in the middle of a build ? Right now I'm planning out my RFS setup. Trying to decide if I should tackle that first, or a radiator upgrade first

RFS all the way! Had I done this I wouldn't have popped my motor.

I try to but im a noob at it. I only brewed a few batches so far. They came out ok but not what I want. I like my Pauliner and Washtiener Dunkle. Right now I only have 2 13.5 gal kegs of each and no korny in there.

The CSF don't have a oil cooler. It's separate. I'm just saying the two in combination keeps everything within temps.

I think it's pretty awesome. Personally I think it's the best kit you can buy right now.

^^ thanks. They had a couple of TT build Z's in there when I got tuned, both were from Jersey. Black Z with Amuse kit was nice.

They had a nice purple 350 NA build too, 350whp.

I'm tempted by FI, not going to lie. But really tempted by NA...I'll have to spend some more time thinking

I'm one of those guys that does just the basics mods and if I want a faster car then I'll just buy a new car oppose to dumping $10k-$20k in the engine, but hey that just me.

Because it's the only kit that allows you to keep your front crash bar and the turbos can handle 800ish whp out of the box, which is much more than most people will shoot for. The EFR turbos are pretty advanced turbos from what I have read as well.

That being said, I don't have any on hand experience with the AAM or Fast Intentions (the forum favorite) kits. I have the BP kit, and it's also an excellent kit. Honestly you can't go wrong with any of those kits.

I'm always curious to why someone says xyz is the best. Most of the time the comment is highly subjective. That being said, this tread is highly subjective too lol.

One small correction - the gamma V3 kit also retains the crash bar.... though the kit was kind of unicorn until recently (for reasons I am sure we all do not need to relive). This was also an important detail for me.
