i only had it running for a couple of days. Low end has really good pick up way better than the s/c. I can't comment on the top end yet since i haven't taken up past 3k (breaking in a new clutch more like clutch is breaking me).

Ok, I give up...what did you do? The intake manifold looks really pretty all polished up and I dig your pretty hoses, but what are they for?

But seriously - you'll really like it once you can open it up. The power is intoxicating.

Any plans for adding the SC later on?

Oh, I thought work still needed to be done on the swap. Boost would be the crown jewel on your set up.

oh for the actual swap i'm pretty much done. I just need to wire up the manifold and hide a couple more things. As for the boost its coming but i want to take my time with it plus its also hard to fund both projects at the same time.

I live at a mile high up so technically, I've been part of the Mile High Club since I was a teenager... Does that count?

I actually finally got to do some work towards it tonight due to a parts screw up on someone elses part for this mustang motor I'm building. So I put on the rear timing cover, flipped the throttle body, dremeled off the entire housing for the e-gas motor only to realize I also cut off the tb stop, so I had to make a custom stop at wot, then I made the custom mount for the tps, I actually cut out a big chunk from the 3.0 tb and epoxied it onto the 3.5 tb, it came out pretty sweet

devin that definitly doesn't count, it has to be on a plane in flight

got them from here http://www.amstreetrod.com/CatalogIndex.php4
It cost a little more to run the setup i did but i think its worth it not having to worry about ruber hoses and clamps.
