I should have bought that kit. I was first in line, but knew I had an LQ9 waiting. I wasn't sure about the 10:1 compression and the procharger. But, I didn't want to be breaking into a virgin LQ9. Oh well.

Sounds like that procharger has killed it second engine (glad it wasn't mine).

Ben's a cool dude. He sent me his cell # and told me to call him anytime for questions when I got my kit. Haven't heard from him in a long time though.
