You're making a mistake by selling that stuff.
There shouldn't be anything hard about installing the stuff. Nothing has to be custom made, does it..?? The tuning is is the biggest pita and that isn't that bad.

it won't be so bad... save the parts and build it up when you have a week off or so

a few years ago i went to the track with Doc and saw how the ss/sc handled. i wanted a year and got my wish! of course if i know about the turbo'ed cobalt earlier, i would have waited. not to mention that they are around the same price as the superscharged ones.
if i knew now what i knew then i would have bought the supercharged in the very beginning.
look how long its taken xCobalt05x to get his car up to speed( but we want mention the mess up with the timing belt)

Go to Germany and save up cash, when you come back we will all work on your Car. like I told you and Doc told you, the tunning is the problem right now, talk to Benny HHR or anyone else who is doing this build. I could probably install all those parts in a day, but the wiring and tuning...

find out when,where, and how much for dyno tuning, dont forget to ask for a Military discount, also ask what do they require prior to tuning? like a base tune or what. then well go from there.
