Thanks man, i'll be happy just to have mine running again at all, hurt the motor last year and been paying for my wedding so she's been sitting on jackstands!

But our wedding is this weekend and then i'll be coming over to the turbo side, can't wait!

BTW, I bet your car is way more comfortable than mine, so don't worry about the weight, just turn the boost up!!!
