I certianly hope this isn't the case....
Sounds like I might be screwed too. or at least fab up a bunch of **** myself 
I ordered the kit thinking it would fit with A/C, but it sounds like that isn't the case. Where are there problems?

Verdad Gallardo Hmmm... Well, I only ordered the hot parts, figuring I could somewhat easily replace the existing log kit and just tweak the existing cold side to fit. Maybe I should have thought through this a little more, looking at the list of things Joel includes in his kit that I didn't buy from him. If nothing else, the OFI hot parts will work great on my Mustang -- I have PLENTY of room in that car and won't need the custom radiator or A/C condenser. Then I'll find another solution for ZAngel's car where we can reuse or at least not replace as much existing stuff.
The whole idea started out as a way to solve the cracking manifold problem she has whenever she actually gets on her car a little hard.
As an aside, I hold nothing against Joel or OFI, as his kit appears to include or will include everything needed. It's my issue that I didn't get a complete kit, nor did I do the proper research to see so much else needed to be changed to accommodate the kit.

BTW I did not sell it I am having the issues fixed.
To top all this off I had to buy a new radaitor mod the fan shroud, transmission lines etc. The whole intercooler piping had to be reworked.

My down pipe would not seal correctly my cross over tube would not fit correct and will have to be redone, the header flanges were warped. Thickness of the mat vs cost is crap. Need I go on? I can all day long.

My hot parts fit my car very well...no complaints there....just need a/c....anyone get a timetable from Joel? I got 2 weeks...2.5 weeks ago which is why i posted.
I noticed that if you bolt up the wastegate but not totally tighten it down...you can then move the dp around a little to give you more clearance around the steering shaft and alternator.
