Don't want to know price? Yes i do. Sounds awesome!!! I'm sure you probably don't want to share how much it'll run you, but I was wondering how much its gonna cost you to get your car shipped to them, I live right up the road from yu and was thinking of doing the same thing.

I am setting it up for pump gas right now, but it really depends on how things go with the setup and flash, As soon as they release a standalone that I know will work on the IX then I am planning on releasing the full potential of the car.

I am only shooting for 450-500awhp on pump gas right now. But as far as the build goes, I will already have everything installed and ready to go so when I start using race gas/ alky inj... and a stand alone I know my motor will take it.
