not unless I have to (ie, tranny failure)

I'm just torn between staying mostly N/A in a b16 (maybe juice it to beat stangs) or going boost in the y7.

with these:
- skunk2 d16 IM ($300)
- KMS d16 throttle body ($200)
- whatever turbo kit is available (probably Greddy's kit h: ), or maybe go custom. I wish Apexi still made theirs.... (~$1500)
- FMIC (~$300-$500)
- upgraded fuel management (DMS 450cc's, SMC, Fuel rail/pump) (~ $300-$500)
- supra piston/b16 rod combo (lowers compression a tad, too ) ($500)
- tranny cooling kit (dunno on that one, I might not even fuck with it)
- Apexi WS exhaust ($400)

I'm figuring maybe 160hp or so on 8psi daily driven.

and at worst, I'm spending $4000 on everything I need, which is about the same for the b16.

hard to say tho. Very, very, very few boosted y7's.

we'll see
