good news... my installer will help me disconnect the front driveshaft, do three-pulls pre-installation of my package, and then do another three pulls post-installation to see what the real gains are. Will post results once it's all in

He's the only person that touches my car Todd ...... I've known Steve for three years now and I worked with him for a year of that. He is a perfectionist. Can't beat that. He will be working on my car after work so it make take longer than I am anticipating in my excitement. I gotta make a call and get the software going tomorrow. I HOPE to be running by next Sunday. We will see though.

Ben has introduced me to Steve and he's the one also installing my turbos and a bunch of other stuff. Very nice guy and knows his stuff. VERY (and I mean VERY ) reasonable pricing and will work with whatever you need.

Ben, I was wondering... do you think Steve would mind if I came on Sat (or whenever he's working on it) and "helped" lend a hand? Perfect time for me to learn about the turbo and it's mechanics

I don't see why not Ed. As long as you don't shove him out of the way while he is working haha. Just give him a ring and ask him if he'd mind.
