so lucky! I think there are ways to get around removing the rear cats but I may just wait until my car is old enough to be exempt from emissions. I go to the junkyard and have pulled parts off all kinds of m113 engines and a c class(fog light) for my car, I’d like to follow this TVT designs thread except use the Needswings cai instead of the larger air box. I didn’t know the water pump is interchangeable, is it any bigger/an upgrade or just interchangeable? That’s very interesting, I’d love to swap in a supercharged v8 but I don’t have the resources or knowledge yet. I’m just out of school, planning on getting a degree in automotive technology, so maybe one day.
