Yea, your probably right, honestly I have auto x, its not for me… and im running a 6266 with a 1.15 hotside, but being twinscroll I should hit full boost around 5000-5200 RPMS… which I realize doesnt sound great, but with a 95-9800 RPM redline, it outta be a fun ride! ---

make sure to save your stock throttlebody - you may want it back on once you start driving the car. Many times aftermarket are not as good as oem - especially for driving around town. I am hoping it has a brass throttle plate too. engine bay looks sooo nice ---

holy shit hahaha every time i see a 4 cyl radiator it seems weird, so used to seeing big cube V8 radiators that are twice as wide. seems like it shouldn’t work. but less coolant needs less space to cool.
