Ask them to order the kit minus the blower. Buy my head unit for a grand (you now save 1100 bucks) have them put my head unit on your kit. My blower is at speed inc. I want to go to a f1. This way we both win. My d1sc has 4 dyno pulls on it. Its brand new.

I think you'll really dig the kit. Are you gonna install it yourself?

You could have saved some cash by buying (nbm00ws6) Tom's D1SC for a very good price

I have my D1 SC sitting here on the floor waiting for me to install it.

I know the anticipation you are feeling. I dont know if I am going to attempt to install it myself.

How are you planning on installing?

My brother in law is a mechanic so he is going to help me install it...I heard the ATI Kits are not that bad to install anyways....Then i'm going to drive it to speed inc about 1 1/2 away and they are going to dyno tune it and install plugs,injectors and intank pump....I was going to install everything but i got a excellent price from Tom...

I already paid for the kit and i got a really good deal so i just went ahead and bought a new kit...

I going to run 8lbs and i have Hooker Headers ORP,catback and going to have speed inc do a safe tune...Of course you never know what might happen but would you guys think with my car should be ok or is that pushing it?? I have only heard good things about speed inc....Any other experience with FI and Speed Inc Tuning??

you cannot go wrong with Speed Inc.... PERIOD.... Jim is vey good at what he does and you don't tune 700+ RWHP that has lived on the street and at the track consistently by not knowing what your doing. your in good hands.... but as with anything there are no guarantees but Speed Inc in your corner gives you a head start.. good luck!!
