He doesn't need a reason. Maybe he woke up dropped a turd and decided his SR wasn't what he wanted anymore.

Looking good man. If you need any help with the wiring etc let me know, I have a few spread sheets/files made up that can really help out with doing it yourself and keeping everything contained in the stock fuse box versus adding additional relays etc. Mine was beast mode while it was running.

Some tips I picked up when I did mine:
a. You can also save some money on the headers by ordering them uncoated from mazworx and coating them yourself as they work with the xcessive kit.
b. I also noticed that the balancer is not installed. You are going to need a huge torque wrench to set that thing correctly. The oil pump drive gear is driven by a sprocket that is sandwiched between the timing chain sprocket and balancer. Its not a keyed sprocket so the torque (~270ft lbs I think) is really important to make sure you dont have oil pump issues.
c. Make up a debris shield for the lower half of the tranny and starter hole on the block. The clutch and flywheel will both be exposed to everything splashing up under the car.
d. If you decide to run the MW headers you will need to grind down the steering shaft joint and top bolt head. Its close but it will clearance itself on the runner if you dont.
