Also, i'm still sticking with the twin charge idea so i'll have a twincharged 20v :)

Update:

So, apparently there was a bit of a snafu with my motor build which has pushed back the completion date to sometime this winter. Sorry guys but I want this done right the first time so I've advised the shop handling this project that I understand and I want to be kept informed of any furthur snags/issues that happen along the way.

That being said, i may just use this opportunity to drive the '2 a little since I haven't touched it since last september...

Not many details were given but suffice it to say something went BOOM, and the people building the motor don't want me to receive an inferior product so they're going to figure out what went wrong and ensure the motor is sound before they deem it complete, which is kinda good when you think about it. However, the bad part is they couldn't give me a time frame for completion but its nice to know that they care enough to be frank with me.
