I'm not necessarily going to use the engine in an SVX, I'm just throwing around ideas at this point.

I know the mod-bug and I know the desire for more-more-more. My other car is a 94 Legacy Turbo (with a front mount, big turbo, suspension mods, and a dogbox). It gets down enough that I don't need another ridiculous car. I'm selling the Legacy, but I have no lack of opportunity to drive cars faster than I'll ever be. Plus, this is my daily driver, so reliability is #1 priority.

Engine management is important, and I'm toying with how to approach it. It's one of my least concerns about the project. Being emissions compliant is important, and I want the ability to tune the car myself.

Sounds like a supercharger is going to be the winner for my application.

I'm concerned about intake temperatures though, and I would feel much more comfortable if LAN's stage 3 setup had some form of charge cooler (Eaton's sandwich AWIC seems like a really good idea for example).

I'll have to give LAN a call and see what they think...
