Ok as of right now im in the middle ground of goin N/A or Turbo. I really want to upgrade the transmission at same time if I go turbo (Plus my warranty will be running out within the next year). So I was thinking just to get IM, Header, TB, and tune for now and upgrade to SVT Brakes (Allready have FS Exhaust and CAI). And the IM, TB, and the Flasher will carry over to the turbo kit when I decide to get it. So I will only lose the money that I put into the Header. Yes I was planning on going with a 2 stage boost controller, I think 7 psi will still spin like crazy. But you never know I may just get stage 1 (I really want to fill that F2 bumper gap with a intercooler :-(), I know If I get stage 2 I will bring it up to 12psi and probably blow something (no self control) I think when I drive my dads car it doesnt see under 15psi lol. Its all in the air. I have about 3-4 grand to spend on some projects on the car. So I will be doing something.
Some Questions:
1. If I decide to order the kit It will proably be in Mid-July since I have some army training which is always fun :-(. So my question do you have a couple kits on the shelf? Because if I order Mid July I will have about a month to recieve and install before Im back in college.
2. If I go N/A route for now and purchase the X-Cal will the tune be for header and IM or will I have to purchase that seperatly.
3. If I replace all my engine and transmision mounts everybody says the idle is rough. How rough is rough? Is it like old school muscle car shake?

Thanks
