Wow, talk about being spread thin, haven't gotten on the board in awhile.

The 2.5L kit will be released next wednesday IIRC, we are waiting on shipments to come in currently, so finally are rolling on that. We did the final tune on the 2.5L about 3 weeks ago, so everything is a go. The 3.2 is on the lift and we have fabbed up the headers, and are waiting for our supplier to copy them. I played around a little bit on Josh's 3.2L today with the blower oil change, and it looks like you can do it with the blower in place. The top fill port is tight to get to, but I have modified an allen wrench to work. Tomorrow, I will make a custom fill tube, which will be accessable from the engine compartment for those who don't want to do it the other way. Draining the blower is not an issue. Either way, the oil change on the blower shouldn't be an issue. I will be changing the oil on a 2.5L blower tomorrow, so i will find out exactly how it is going to go. I will report the news tomorrow.

We are expecting the 2.7 to be virtually identical to the 3.2L, so that should be an easy in and out to check that. We know the exhaust is going to be the same, which is our biggest issue with the 3.2L right now. After the 3.2L goes live, we will need a couple weeks to get a 2.7 in the shop and go through an install and make sure everything is the same. There *should* be no additional fabrication required. If this is the case, the cost will be identical to the 3.2L.
