Hi Vlad
the works looks great

Keep Up The good work.
i took a short-turn - called in DASC two days ago and ordered one.

Hope your going to finish your project before mine

PS - are the new injectors direct fit into the original fuel rail?

Well, after spending a month at a shop where it took those idiots a month only to take my hood off i took the car back home. In the following weeks i'm taking it to a friends shop to "git 'er done". I would have done it myself but unfortunately i don't have the time.
Sad updates...but that's life.

Supercharger is abandoned, going turbo. Sometime next week i'll take the car back from the muffler shop where the exhaust manifold is being made.

Looks like fun! I want to see what the intercooler looks like behind the MtechII. How much boost are you going to be running at? -Preston

For the moment 0.5-0.7bar. I was able to keep the aux fan.

Updates...

looks like you're enjoying the build

turbo is the way to go, less headaches, and the lag thing is bullshit, if you buy the right turbo size

looks like 2008 will be the M4x turbo year

enjoy
