How much did you pick it up for? And did it come with everything you need?

screwing up an FI install is a quick way to buying a new motor... seriously, pay someone to do it if you dont have the experience.

Yeah, I got it for about 800$ with less than 2k on it from a good friend(brother in law deal), its actually the DRAG Gen3 kit, supposedly 210 at the wheels at 8 psi, not to bad for 800$ kit is complete, except gauges and turbo timer

Shouldn't it be pretty stright forward? If you have the manifold then shouldn't everything just bolt right up? Maybe not.
