i don't wanna do a mini-me because of compression issues, i was originally going to, but theres really no way for me to keep it under 11.0:1 compression after the turbo. too much for a daily driver i want to be reliable. kit is not on yet, i'm still waiting on the guy selling me the intercooler and injectors. i should have them by the weekend. i'll be doing an adapter plate, and welding the back where u can't get the 4th bolt in. anybody know a good place to get an adapter plate though, i don't really have any way of drilling 3/4" steel (don't think the dremel can cut it this time lol)

yeah i know about the cluster, its a little inside joke because like 5 people have asked if i'd sell them that "JDM" cluster.
