Yes, It require much work, but I think of finish it on summer.

I don't use a custom manifold, because I don't remove the original inlet manifold of the engine. I need a bit of silicone hoses as SAMCO( but they are much expensives )

Yes, the pulley of my s/c have a electromagnetic clutch: when I give it 12v of power the clutch move the pulley, otherwise not. If I don't want connect it to the "starter" 12v, I can bolt it for work as a normal pulley.

I don't want more much power of the dasc, but almost the same, because I have a intercooler and the DASC doesn't have it.

Yes, but if Downing Atlanta do the kit with only a FPR and not Eprom or injectors, I think that it will work good the same. I don't use the car for RACE I use she for "daily driver", so I want much torque and power at mid-range revs. I don't race everyday, I drive on relax and I don't want a car with the power at 7000 revs.

- Can I have the throttle downstream the s/c if I have a by-pass valve?
- Have you suggestion for the hoses?
- Do you say where I can buy DASC spare parts (bypass valve and FPR)?

bye and thank you
