good luck on the rest.
Yeah, I kinda planned to run it in NA, so it dosnt take any beating from boost, I have put around 180 miles on it so far, so its still a baby, but it gets an *** beating either way. all my turbo stuff is ready except for manifold and guages, I still have to buy guages, the ECU is chipped but I think i'm going to sell it or trade for a stock Z6 p28 ECu and just run an Safc hack.

looks like you are ready for boost martin. what manifold were you going to use? do you have your downpipe already? i worked on mine today. hopefully by the end of next week i will have the car out of the garage. i have a bit of work to do- have to put end tanks on the ic core, charge piping and i still have to do the wiring for the dsm 450's vafc, the wb02 and the power meter. :P i'm gonna keep my fingers crossed!

Hey Aaron, you just reminded me of tons of stuff I still have to do, For now i'm planning to take the stock Volvo manifold and weld it to a stock civic exhaust flange, we'll see how financially secure I am by the time to meet up, I may plan on getting the same type of manifold made that you have on your car, its cheaper to make than a ramhorn, takes up less room and looks like it flows nicely, I still have to go pickup the intercoolers and guages for my setup.

Till I can afford a proper intercooler i'm going to be using 2 probe intercoolers and make them in to one frontmount.
