Kind regards

Hi,

It actually looks to be some fairly nice kit. But, I'm generally averse to Forced Induction and would rather go the 3.4L Naturally Aspirated route instead.

My reasons are two-fold. First, a Turbo complicates things immensely with additional plumbing, electronics, Fuel mapping and HEAT! Secondly, with rare exception, I hate the schizophrenic personalities of a Forced car - one OFF Boost, the other ON Boost...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
