does the guy want us to send him the money and our stock parts?! so the buyer has to have his car out of service til the turbo gets in?

Haha, that would be nice to be the 1st. The only thing that is depressing is that mines an automatic. New piping will definetely be essential because his maf socket was for an 05 and not to mention the nicks and dings. I'm a little new to this so it is all a learning process. Anybody know whom I would approach or where to go to get new piping?

forced induction + automatic = not a bad thing!
