Just wanted to begin with a congrats on the car
. I've spent the past 2 days reading most of the 60 page thread, and I'm glad you can finally enjoy it! I am one of many who are envious haha.
I wanted to ask a few questions about the cost and the install.
Were you able to watch the shop install the kit? If so, do you think that an average joe with medium mechanic ability (able to install sways, exhausts, etc.) could understand the instructions well enough to do it?
With the kit plus protocav's installation of the gauges, how much did it run you? You can PM me this info if you don't want to post it on the thread. I just wanted to see how much extra it would cost to have protocav do the installation of the gauges.
Thanks, and another congrats on the car. This is how they all should have come

expect to see
a stock 03 Track vs. 04 Turbonetics single turbo Z
any poor schmuck in an Evo that thinks he can hang vs. 04 Turbonetics Z
possibly a 300+fwhp RSX-s vs. 04 Turbonetics Z

Thanks for the response MIAPLAYA, I'll be sure to contact protocav when I get this kit
. Another quick question: how come you didn't have protocav install a turbo timer while he was working on all the gauges and other stuff?
