All in all not an expensive mistake, but UBER time consuming. While the engine is out I am replacing the fuse box, and all wiring harnesses on the front side of the car. It may be a bit until she's up and running again but I am not giving up.

Yes, an N/A build is going to be the easiest. Theoretically, a F/I setup has more potential for more power, but is more time consuming, more expensive, and much, much easier for catastrophic failure to happen.

Pfft, forced induction is the easy road to travel for big power.

speaking of, anyoen want to give me $5K so I can go buy a wrecked STi to donate modern running gear to my tired old SVX? Would be a fun swap given the amount of wieght lost off the nose of the car.
