I'd rather show than tell. I'll take pics of the boxes when they get here. No forced induction though, that's phase 4. Phase 3 will be building the motor. Phase 2 will be suspension and brakes.

FINE!

JWT S7 cams
JWT springs/retainers
JWT clutch
JWT flywheel
Nismo roller pilot bearing
Braided stainless clutch line
Crawford cats
DC ceramic headers
Turbo XS Utec
and I'll be ordering a Nismo shifter soon.

I'm considering getting the Koyo radiator and Samco hoses now too since I'll probably dump the coolant when I install the headers and I have a Nismo T-stat waiting to go on. Supposedly, it's easier to do the headers with the heater hoses off.

Nope. I'm eventually going with the T-Netics single setup which uses the stock manifolds or a completely custom setup from Mike of Factor X fame. I'll try to fit it with the DC headers since the flanges should be in the stock locations. If it won't fit, I'll just sell the headers. There's going to be several months between phases.

WHen you start digging in your engine to put the cams in, let me know, I am more then happy to help. I am going to be doing the same eventually and your car would make for a good crash course in cam installation

I am pretty positive you can. THere is a ton of room in the bay. I did not have to pull my engine to do the TT, althought it would have probably saved me about 5-10 hours if I did.

It'll be a bit more than 10hp with tuning and an extra 500 rpm. The S7 cams are very close to the C2 race cams. They actually have 1 degree more duration (262 vs. 261) and only 0.15mm less lift (11.43mm vs. 11.58mm)than the C2's.

Added to the list

Koyo 36mm radiator
Samco hoses
UR pulley set

Oh, and Crawford's are back-ordered. I switched to Ultimate Racing's.

Now I'm thinking about a FAL slim fan and some Pi-Thon hose clamps.

I think that he means like the Squires turbo system. Remove the muffler and there should be plenty of room.
