    Thank you! Anything noteworthy other than lighter weight, like timing issues at assembly or tuning?

    Yes it’s a bolt in. It was recommended to me by a reputable engine builder. But it is recommended to have it balanced. He told me if there was something wrong with my crank to use this as a replacement. There is nothing wrong with the one I took out but I figured everything else is new I’d replace this too. The lighter weight was just a bonus.

    Decided to stick with CS for the inter cooler. Since the upgraded core works with my current piping I figured it would be easiest B9977AAE-41EB-4657-84C4-00BDE27B7A86.jpeg
