if ams would include install for that price, it would actually be a good deal. i know it sounds crazy, but its true lol

I honestly have considered doing that. just getting a fully built crate motor. I told my fiance that I was thinking about it and she threatened to leave me

It would be nice if it included installation. To be honest with you guys though, I want the experience and enjoyment of having the Evo in the garage and doing all the work myself (mechanical at least). Tune and other stuff by Pro's, as well as tricky installations. It might sound whack but it's like a childhood dream. To build my perfect Evo. Dream car has always been an Evo, now I want to build it.

Also... I know it doesn't make a huge difference, but if I could build that M7 2.3L motor, or if they have a 2.4L or something by the time I'm ready... that'd be nice. Next April I'll be able to garage it and buy everything tho, guaranteed.
