on another note. You guys feel it would be cheaper buying the Turbo,wastegate,fmu ect separately, and having some performance shop custom make the tubes for me? Or would buying a kit from say carsound (if they ever come out with it) or forcefedfabs be cheaper?
FFF will be cheaper becuase he only take's a little profit if any.... but he hand biulds them so there is more of a wait...

you dont have to forge..... you should waorry about the M5 exploding like i did, thats why i went to the auto

for the clutch a spec stage 3+ should work fine

and of corse you will need a kick *** fuel system

Thanks for the Info viper. Your HP/TQ raiting on the 3.8L make me all tingly. I'm finally graduating here and looking at a descent job, so I got all sorts of things on my mind of what I'd love to do. FFF has some awesome photos of Turbo installs and Engine swaps. Now I just gotta get a big garage.

I'll probably end up buying another V6, or a V8 and make one the daily driver and just mess with the other.
