    Dual bov's

    Hence why I said 2 would be pointless. Aside from the sound, there is no need for you to have 2. If I were you, I would stick to one and keep it simple. Adding an extra one is just another thing that can break. That's my thoughts. -AM3

    89+ round motor mounts

    Agreed this needs to be a sticky. It would have saved me like 3 hours of figuring out where those washers came from, lol. -AM3

    Dual bov's

    I'm no expert, but I'm gonna say 2 would be totally pointless. -AM3

    Options for a stronger tranny? what should i do?

    I'm pretty sure I saw a kit to relocate the shifter on Ebay a while ago. Can't seem to find it now though. -AM3

    Before-cooler theory

    By his math, Ambient air+Ambient air=colder than ambient air. GENIUS! The only way he could maybe get frost would be by spraying CO2 or Nitrous through the intercooler. lol, not to be mean, but the setup you want to do is just a waste of time, an intercooler, and some piping. -AM3

    Any tips & tricks for motor swap? bad for good motor (simple swap I would think)

    Mine had silicone and they were really loose, lots of leaks. They're also really flimsy and I've seen them collapse on themselves under vacuum. I would say stick with rubber, I did, its tried and true. -AM3

    Sawbladz build. Lots of pics...possibly some progress.

    This is the only thing I do not like about your build. Personally, I would go with this because the shroud allows it to pull air across the rad more evenly, rather than across one spot, causing potential hot-spots, which can lead to cracking. I know its a lot of money, but its a good...

    7M+5M+6M+M3.....Confused??? :-)

    This engine build just took every other crazy engine build, and bitch slapped them in the face. Nice work so far. Can't wait to see it in action. -AM3

    In an accident 30 mins after leaving dealer with a $2,000 bill...

    My teacher at my old school had a car get totaled about a month after having it painted. Insurance paid for the paint. Just show them receipt and evidence and it should work out. But as others have pointed out, it depends on other factors as well. -AM3

    No Spark, but everything tests good

    Yeah, my CPS was off just enough that it wouldn't start. And I had a missing fuse. The PO took it for something else, so I checked all my fuses, they were all good, it was just one was missing. That's one you don't expect and feel like a dumbass for not finding sooner. lol -AM3

    is this small crack a cause for concern

    He could do that. That's what they do if there is a small body crack on an airplane. At least at the Airport I used to fly out of. -AM3

    Is this fuel cut, or something else?

    At the moment, I'll be happy at 300 WHP, but I eventually want to go much bigger. But for now we'll call it 300. And lol, I know what the afm is, I'm not totally car dumb. I'm a 3rd year auto student, but they only teach OBD II electronics these days. I've hardly learned anything that is pre-OBD...

    Is this fuel cut, or something else?

    Oh. So what exactly is Fuel Cut then, and what happens when I hit it? How do I fix it? Sorry to ask you all the questions, but you've been really helpful to me throughout the entire project. -AM3

    Is this fuel cut, or something else?

    I forgot about that, but yes, it does. So at 10 PSI the stock fuel system is not enough I take it? What components do I need to upgrade? I'm guessing pump and injectors. Anything else? -AM3

    egr vac mod

    I don't know the NA system that well, but according to my manual port R is the extra one, although it doesn't appear to matter. Again though, I'm not 100% sure on this as I understand the Turbo system a little better. -AM3

    egr vac mod

    Yeah, the NA has a slightly different vacuum system. The Turbo's is actually a little simpler IMO. -AM3

    Is this fuel cut, or something else?

    When the car is warmed up and I drive it hard, at about 5500 RPM the engine stutters and the car lurches really bad until I shift or let off. It is mostly stock with the exception of full 3" exhaust, Spearco FMIC, piping (2.5" I think), and it boosts at about 10-11 PSI. Stock fuel, ecu, etc...
