I'll post a parts list in a few days, probably before the final tune on Friday. Thanks for keeping this to yourself for so long.

Until the day HP numbers can be converted to dollars for simple enthusiasts, I will probably not easily forget how much money has been spent. But hopefully I'll be happy after Friday.

I want to go into the final tune with no expectations of high HP numbers. Since I am in pioneering territory here, I really don't know what to expect. Regardless, I hope the final setup will be fun, fast, and dependable.

Actual transmission has not been touched, though it has been augmented GTM Valvebody and Fluidyne Cooler. I am told this setup is safe for 500 whp. I will not be pushing that to risk breaking something else.

I'm not sure what my high boost will end up being, but I am starting with a 0.700 Bar (10.153 PSI) wastegate spring.

I have my fingers crossed. I don't live(go to school) too far from you so I may have to beg for a ride in your G one day.

The G35 is longer. I believe some of the charge pipes are different.

+1 There is an extra pipe for the G, also the oil (send and return) and WG lines are longer.

You have the old piping so either way if you are selling it to a City folk then they need to do a minor Mod to relocate the charge pipe anyway.

I'm holding off opening my results to formal discussion for a bit longer because of all the craziness that happened on the other thread. I need to decide what to do next. Please bear with my silence awhile longer.
