Contgrats man! You'll love it. I miss mine, now that it's gone...

Yeah I wont be boosting over one bar anytime soon

And yeah, it was a PITA. It would have been a lot easier if we had just had an extra day, no rain, or some power tools, lol. But hey, its over now

Why do you say that about the 5-speed ECU for the 2JZ?
