Looks like Santa came early this year
And you thought there was no way to get a legal Turbo S in Cali.
What does 'lil birdie have to say now?

well, keep us posting on recommended clutches for this, too, because without they are gonna go through them pretty quickly.
So willing to reveal exactly what turbo you are using? T3/T04e hybrid? what kind of wastegate? (hopefully Tial, or HKS as a second choice) what kind of pump are you using? heat exchanger? reservoir tank for the a2w intercooler? I've found in the past using an A2w intercooler that a reservoir tank with ice can greatly increase the efficiency of the system, and lasts long enough to get a track session at over 100% efficiency, I was seeing intake temps lower than ambient with my a2w intercooler packed with a 1 gallon ice tank. (on my supercharged e36 m3)

OK I'm impressed and looking forward to the kit...
Hmmmm....so have you done any testing on a MY04? I assume that it would require different tuning for the E-manage for a MY04.
Definately want one....any CMU alum discounts

Fantastic! 
Can't wait for some results and more pics.
Any idea how driveable the car is with a piggy-back such as the E-Manage? I mean as far as part-throttle, changing weather temps, deceleration, etc.

The drivability will be exactly like stock. Just like the UR turbo kit. That is until you mash the throttle. Then something amazing will happen and you will be all smiles.
