its probably true....the forged crank ONLY comes when you get the forged muffler bearings and the stainless steel blinker fluid.

So any tips on doing my boost leak test this weekend?
Dirctly onto turbine housing...block off pressure side line to boost controller....?
Hopefully I don't have any major leaks, apparently there is a huge thread on the seals in the throttle body leaking on a ton of cars but I won't be able to fix that this weekend if it's the case.

bought a RA this past Saturday (Rally Red - color looks so sexy). The guys at Biggers 
down in Elgin here gave me a deal I just could not refuse. So far the car is very nice... the SST transmission kicks a$$ too, that thing is SCHHHWEEET.
Dropped the RA off at AMS last night, they have not had their hands on one yet. My car is the guinea pig hahahha.... They will keep the car for 1-2 weeks, and were talking about a very sweet deal on a tune, and supporting parts / mods that they develop for the car. I am really looking forwards to see what these RA's have in them, but am not expecting too much. We will see......

Congrats on the car Andy!
The car should be able to make the same power as the evo once the turbo is swapped. I think it's going to come down to what that trans can hold.
