Thanks, it definitely is. It's still no HTA35R, but about as much as I want on the street daily (and stock block) right now. BTW, the AMS inline pump kit works pretty slick when you convert .

Be glad the City of Pewaukee cops haven't bugged you about it. They never like Pete's.

I am! It's another reason why I leave the high-flow cat on. Don't need any extra attention. I'm still waiting for the day I get a front display ticket here .

Can't compare the turbos. You either want apples or you want oranges.

none the less I do like your apples

I never even knew that AMS had a inline pump kit. How much? is it another walbro?? Easy install I assume?

Yeah, it's a Walbro 255 lph HP to help out my 255 lph HP intank, in series. I actually had AMS install it, but it didn't look too bad. The pump on it's own is $150. Fittings, line and quick connect were another $120, and they charged 1.75 hours labor. It also has to be retuned at the same time, obviously.

Now that I have a garage I'd like to get a floor jack & stands...any recommendations?

I assume it's splitting hairs to get into brand "x" over brand "y", but then again these items will hopefully prevent my car from crushing me so I don't exactly want to skimp.

Am I safe as long as I plan on spending ~$150? I imagine every company makes cheap crap, but spend enough and they do have a good product.

I'll only be changing fluids, wheel & tire sets, etc. Not anything major...

I have a set of 4 Husky jackstands from Home Depot. Not sure why I bought 4 since I only ever use 1 or 2 at a time ...

I'm sure anything at HD or Sears is a safe bet. Just don't get the super heavy duty 5 ton jack that weighs 100lbs+. I have one of those that now sits in my parents garage because it was too big and heavy to carry out here.

Thank you nick for the install help! Much appreciated-plus good to know about that leak before the long drive!

Hey Nick and everyone-

Do you know the part number for the seal that goes between ther driveshaft and the TC case? I think its called the rear output seal
#2?
