Called Andy and left a Message. I had just spoke with him and was going to transfer some cash and order in the morning. I'm ready now and called him back. Spare parts are for sale in the parts section. Car is going one more time to the track trying to lower my time. Just cause I know she has a lot more, just need to catch a good 60ft. Need 2 18" front polished 05-07 to get the "Spinmonster recommend widing", Gonna need some meat on the rear with 550 rwhp.

I'm doing a JT Trim Vortech with an air to water intercooler just to be different. I've done a bunch of blower installs. The guy making the piping and brackets is not a forum vendor but he is pretty big round here. One of the top-speed cars from this shop is running in a class that does not allow nitrous. So, the guy went from JT to Y and I got this head unit for a deal. I would have bought Andy's kit otherwise.

I can't say enough good things about Andy. His kits are awesome. I've bought stuff from him before and his costomer service is above and beyond.

I like to use engine oil to cool the blower so I have the pleasure of tapping pans. I think I heard you mention you got a self contained kit. Those work great and make it much easier, I just prefer changing engine oil to blower oil. Pinning the crank is a bag of fun. Just don't snap the bit and take the end of your finger off. Did that last year sometime. Bit broke, and downward pressure jammed my finger into the broken end sticking out of the crank. Yeah! Its really not too bad. Like I said if you run into anything just holler.

You are going to love the kit!
