I'll be honest, not trying to sound pompous or "big sh*t", but I don't know how much it costs to fill up my tank - don't care - gonna pay it anyway, I always tell the attendant "No receipt"... I'll take a look when I pick up the car on Wednesday. I'm sure I will be needing a fill up when I get it... maybe.
*Sigh, must be nice. I work two jobs (good paying jobs too) just to make payments and afford some bolt on mods. I always get receipts because one of my jobs is fee-for-service and so I claim what I can on taxes. Not complaining, though. It's cool to see these build threads.

Will do. After driving turbo cars for so long this is my first NA engine since driving a 94 Camry, so I'm interested in finding out how FI will change the dynamics of the car. For me, once the warranty is up, I'm thinking of doing a supercharge package.

They pushed my kit a month out... So it won't be on the car until Mid-May... Still choosing my wheels.

I don't know what to get yet. I'm hearing many recommendations and I'll decide on something mid April.

Been Busy

I've been busy and all so build was on a bit of a pause. Lux Motion kit will be done end of month and I'm ordering wheels - I've decided on the ADV.1 5.01SL Deep Concave - hopefully won't cost an arm and a leg. Here are some pics of the Atlantic City meet I attended. Thanks to @M-17 for the pics!!

I was letting some fellow owners test out the Turbo Kit. They all loved it!
