its a great deal to me. but it also depends on your area. im live in miami and that sounds good to me but do u trust the guy that did all the work. and u also dont want a ls tranny it will only slow u down

Sounds like a good deal to me, if everything's put together well. There is no way in hell you will get 13's though, unless your car's completely gutted and running slicks up front. Expect mid-14's on a good run, but to average high 14's/low 15's before getting used to everything.

agreed. why the heck is this set up with an ls tranny though? its a shame that the head is shaved... if it has really been sleeved it would be a good part of the way to being ready to handle a decent amount of boost. but... higher compression isn't going to help any possible boost situation
