If people really knew the price of forced induction... HAHA! I smell a lot of upselling going on soon. Well played GTM. This has gone over budget by 60% already LOL. I'm just relieved everything is back on track and full steam ahead. I couldn't stop cursing at the PDF file that GTM sent.

Yeah I didn't see it coming either. I'm not kidding when I say I could have bought a GTR for what I have been dumping Into my car. It's like u said your already so far in u can't back out. I'm just hoping it works out well for the both of us when the applied pressure stops hurting.....the wallet

Sam was telling me that one pull on your car on the dyno with the stock radiator would bring coolant temps to 110c in a 75 degree garage. I was like "F@CK" I broke down and bought their radiator...

Yeah probly a good call since Vegas can get a little warm also. To go cheap after having all the dough you have in there just wouldn't do you any justice. Go big or go home. If mine blows up I'm gonna junk it and go back to a normal car lol well an actual gtr instead of trying to build one again. At this point I'm waiting on aero from Japan b4 they can reroute my oil coolers so I might actually be able to drive my car in the summer here. I hope yours works out nicely. Always look forward to heading about progress. Havnt had any progress on mine in mos.
