I'll be watching this closely as I find it more interesting than reading about someone who has more rwkw than they know how to handle.Take your time with it and do it properly and really stick it to the pessimists.Cheers,Rob 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/25563-na-to-turbo-project/#findComment-385316 Share on other sites More sharing options...
