So, I think I've finally worked out the combo of stuff I'm gonna be using.

I've got a 96 Ex coupe, obviously with a y8. I'm looking for a final goal of around 300whp, and I'm willing to drop the cash neccesary to make sure the car keeps on ticking through it. I've decided against swapping the engine, for many reasons. One, I like the torque profile of a boosted D much better than that of a force-fed B, and two... I just like my D.

So here's my plan. Lemme know what you think. If you think I should use something else, let me know, but let me know why too. If you find a better price on something ( I'm sure you will) please let me know. If you wanna help (I'm in NoVa) lemme know. So here goes...
