Default Thank you gentlemen for the kind words

No sir I didnt do the wire work at all. Hybrid sourced it out and they installed it when it came back. That is the hardest part If you asked me. I have the wiring diagrams for the complete swap but had it done when I was over seas contracting this summer.

No sir havent dynoed it yet. I will this summer though. But by the seat of the pants and hard acceleration i witnessed it is a beast. Just installed Boost Cut control, hks turbo timer upgraded the fuel pump and a lot of other stuff he would have to explain. This is my first tubo vehicle period so I am amazed at the pull. Thanks.

Thats one of the cleanest swaps I think I've ever seen. Definately how I would like my swap to look..!
How much did they whole swap (parts and labor) cost?
