I feel ya man. Between no money cause Im in school, and being gone for Army stuff, my build is going on 4 years now and I still have a bunch of work to do. The best way I have found to cope with it is just leave it sit for awhile to take a break from the stress of it. Then one day, maybe a month or ...

I have both SR and KA. For you situation, I would say stick KA, especially if you are gonna DD it. Anytime I need a gasket or any small **** for the SR, I have to order it and wait a week. Its kind of annoying. Beyond that, driveability at the 300hp level is going to be pretty similar between the 2 ...

Has anyone tried to use the AEM boost solenoid to take advantage of boost control in the nistune? This is for an SR motor (yeah, i know...) but I figure this would be a much cheaper route than buying a full out boost controller

What kind of injectors are they? You might need to play with the latency a bit more. I have a nistune on my SR car, and it has msd 96# (1008cc) injectors. I could not for the life of me get it to run properly, until I got a tip from someone on the nistune forums to use 955 as my injector latency set...
