some odds and end. Got a small tach also, just so I can see where it streches its legs to. I have a windshield mount gauge pod i bought 4-5 years ago that are not available anymore, gonna run them to it

Ive thrown my budget out the window lol. Ordered a fast lsxrt intake and 92mm fast tb for the cathederal port 243 stage 2.5 heads. Between that and a sizable cam It should be stout

Gains from 102mm are not very large on n/a and my supplier doesn't stock the 102mm option. If it was feed by a turbo it would make a bit difference but on n/a the gains are very minmal

scratch that, they stock the 102mm but WITH the TPS sensor, So i'll just spring the extra amount and get a new TPS adn 102mm
