I'm in Chicago, not too far away

Be very afraid of me.
Welcome to the site. Don't worry, I drive a Neon, I can't even say that I am a DSMer yet.
Oh, and isn't the Stage 1 HRC kit non intercooled, but the Stage 2 comes with a small FMIC, so you don't need to "upgrade FMIC" if you go with the stage 2

I could be wrong, maybe stage 2 is only a SMIC, its been so long since I have read into aftermarket turbo systems, they are overpriced IMO.
If you need to know anything about the awful 420A motor, let me know, odd's are I have the answers.
