Both!

I'd love to have a one piece driveshaft, headers/exhaust that would pass inspection, and some wheels/tires. But right now the only thing I have thats worth anything is a Whipple. Wonder what that would bring on Wall Street?

Glad to see you finally got it installed! I agree with you on the instructions. They are detailed, but the quality is far at best. But once you get everything done, it instantly becomes worth it!

In 5th gear at that speed there is much more load than boosting in first.
