Hope someone has a garage! Need about an hour or so for those exhausts to cool down too.

Should I bring 2 jackstands as well??

Also count me in. I'll also bring some burgers and buns.

Local shop in MD is running 9 out of 10 with stock internals. I have read a few people having problems with stock internals. But those all seemed to be from bad tunes. People installing the kits themselves. Ran both my last 2 cars with stock internals with turbo kits installed on them and had no problems. Lexus IS300 Single Turbo and RX7 Twin turbo.

We will see if the stock internals can handle it or not. Might build up the motor if I really decide to press 500hp. Pretty sure you can push 420 to 440 hp on the stock internals.

400 is really high for stock internals... I'm afraid you'll throw a rod or something.

I will keep count and let you know what other stuff you can bring. But do plan on bringing some beer. I will have some, but who knows how much we need. We will grill out if weather permits, not unless missr don't mind grilling in the rain
