I already talked to them this evening and they were pretty cool about it and said call Steve at 6am and if he couldn't put it on a truck be there at 8 am and they would fort lift it on my truck for me. So I will have it at my house by tomorrow and in the car with transmission, exhaust, driveline installed before I go to bed. Then Wednesday I need to go to the dealer at noon for a flywheel crank sensor, A/C idler pulley and exhaust collector gasket. Then finish the install of the top half...all sensor wiring, accessories, S/C, injection, etc. I will most likely have it started by mid afternoon, the rings broke in and the first oil change by Wednesday night and ready for normal driving by Christmas morning. I could have picked it up today but I didn't know it arrived this morning at the local shipping center The wait is finally over and this is where the rubber meets the road. I already charged the camera and notifed my gopher to be here after work tomorrow and at noon on Wednesday.

Are you gonna keep the DASC for now and go turbo later on, or just keep the DASC? __________________ 2003 Z4 2.5i 2002 Ducati Monster S4 | | | 12-23-2008, 08:14 AM | #67 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Central NJ Posts: 2,440 | This is freakin' exciting...
