PM Clint@Altered and get a quote. i did.
I'll guess based off what they sell the others for.

I need to save my pennies until my raise hits (2 weeks LOL), but I'll probably pick this up end of July and throw it in.

Thanks for the link.

Great number! I have a very similar same setup except the Uprev tune. Just wondering that have you ever tried on Dynojet dyno? and are you running with stock Y-pipe?

Forgive me for my ignorance, but what is the point to having paying for an oil pan spacer for a NA application with just bolt-ons. Does it do anything for the car other than let you put in more oil?

So you can put a oil temp gauge in the system. More oil allows the heat to be spread out more and helps keep it cooler. Also for better protection.

Aside from what's already been mentioned (I'll pull oil temp with Osiris if I ever want it), the extra quart of oil gives extra oil depth around the pickup. Long sweeping corners at high revs are known for starving wet sump oiling systems and throwing rods through the block. I'd rather spend $150 (what AAM has the old ones on eBay for) and have some extra protection against this, and also have easy addition of oil cooler, etc, in the future.
