Being ova seas not in the mist of things gives a person time to think about the choices they make in life…

As I sit here lookin and doing research into my project I begin to wonder.. is going FI really worth it. I know the feeling of having boost is something that grows on a person. What limits could be made to achieve from people you trust in; their expertise and knowledge base an mechanical backgrounds..

Bottom line is.. I just witness someone’s failure not once but twice from three individuals shops who I was highly recommended to do business with. I can not be the person to point fingers or blame, but as I sit here at my desk already 12g into my project I say to myself “am I ready for this.. can I accept failure” I will look at it this way thou.. I spend a lot of time lookin into my project and the process not only mines but other also. I compare notes, testimonies, and most important FACTs to make a command decision on what routes I’m gonna take.

I apologize for my venting…

That build is such a mess. Man.....

I'm 100% glad I went with a Cosworth shortblock (with build sheet) and had it assembled and tuned at 1 shop.

Don't let that deter you from FI though, often times shop/mechanic reputations change over time. Look back a few years, SGP/VRT both had decent reps at one time and both are tanked.

Read read read the forums. I hardly ever post in the My350z FI forums cause I'm there to learn, and there's a lot to learn over there.

Sucks though how many things get swept under the rug when you sit back and observe.
