Awesome. Good luck with your order and install!
If I could recommend anything to go with this great kit, it would be a tune from Bill and Nazar at Delicious Tuning. I started on the CARB tune and while it ran ok, it was unpleasant and a bit aggravating to drive normally with a very non-linear throttle. The first flash tune from Bill absolutely transformed the behaviour giving the car back its linear throttle and OEM feel and the car was enjoyable again, for the first time with the kit on. Even now with their ff kit and dyno tuning doubling the factory hp, it runs just like OEM with no quirks, bad habits or compromises. Its a well engineered kit coupled with a highly developed tune.
Edit: I'd also recommend you have your supplier verify the kit they ship you will have the updated actuator in it and the relieved blower snout for the 17+ alternators. It will save you a lot of headache to have these parts preinstalled by Edelbrock. Maybe it will get dropped shipped from Edelbrock with the revised designs already, but I would definitely be proactive in verifying to help ensure everything comes upgraded already, especially since you are out in CT. My kit came from Summit Racing stock and lacked a lot of the revised components which required a lot of rework on my end and Edelbrock, who thankfully for me was only a few miles away and extremely helpful. Look back in some of the recent posts and you can see there have been a number of revisions, including a larger cooling tank size, an oil-less air filter, the previously mentioned modified blower snout and larger actuator and it looks like there was also a passenger side runner casting update for the 17+ alternator as well.
