(prices are in USD)
I'm just wondering if thats a good deal, and if theres anything else i would need other then an intercooler...thining about a greddy anyway! I don't know if uncut is the way to go, since theres lots of diagrams on how to wire it in anyway...but would be less of a 'pita'
letme know what u think
thanks

this all depends on your experience with working on cars.
Have you swapped an engine before? There's a ton of things you'll not have planned to have to buy/replace, so the rule of thumb is typically:
- get a whole clip
- have about $1k in "oh crap" money handy
Now on the place you're looking, you'll need all that stuff you mentioned, which puts the price at near $2k?! is that canadian dollars or american? once you pass the $2k USD mark, you should be getting a full clip IMHO.
