I bought an IPS kit for my 8:1 motor (AWD). The kit included manifolds, 02 housings, oil feed/return lines, gaskets, internal wastegates, and turbos. I also purchased the IPS intercooler adapters - not part of the kit, but available through IPS. Coolant lines (which not everyone runs) were assembled by me for about $75 in -AN parts.
There was definitely a lot less modification required on my end. I was able to retain AC, and I did not need to move the powesteering cooler.

I am sure he was trying to save a $ but I bet he wished he would have went that route now. I am thinking about building my old block. There is a friend in the TN area with rods and 8:1 pistons for sale. If I get them for cheap I am going for it. How much did you pay for that kit and what was some of the problems you ran into? BTW I haven’t ever seen any pics of your car or any mod lists. Pics or it didn’t happen!
