Why do you want to do this?its only a 30 hp gain?Is your 7afe blown?
U need a new engine,mounts,tranny,axles,harness(i think),ecu...all i can think of off the top of my head.Not many ppl do it because there isnt really a HUGE gain,most people just go straight to 3sgte -------------------- BANNED. for life, you moron.
