Your worst nightmare...
MY CL65's build list!!!
First of all I really don't know when I will have the time to install all these things on the car. I work about 10 hours a day and the little time I have on the weekend spend it with my family.
I had the opportunity to pick up all these items from a good friend, Let's just leave it at that
, at a fairly affordable price. I am in no way a baller, some of the prices for these items would scare me just looking at it on screen. I was given the priviledge of buying them and I will make sure I put them to good use. 
-Black Series Turbos
-Carbon Ceramic Rotors
-Carbon Fiber Drive Shaft
-Renntech Monolites with 315 Hoosiers
-8 Gallon Reservoir
-Kincaid Killer Chiller
I am still waiting for my Speedriven intercoolers. Once I install everything will be doing downpipes and heading to Speedriven to get dyno tuned.
On the Black series turbos, we will be doing a comparison to the 65 turbos pretty soon and see what are the major differences, word has it exhaust housing and bigger intake wheels, honestly appears the manifolds might be different as well maybe it's just me.

Well modding has already started and will continue so it should not be real slow, but probably still be a second behind Godspeed in the 1/4. His car sounds like the one thats going to break into the 9's.
My list is:
ECU/TCU tune
Quaife LSD
muffler delete
home made CAI
Line lock
265/40-18 M/T's on rims that match whats on my car in sig
I/C pump rewired to run 100% of the time the car is on
Still need to do the I/C resevoir and the STAR -10* cooling fan mod for track days. Having the fan pull air throught the H/E and the pump run all the time I'm staging should help be more consistant.

bow: Didn't I read in your other thread something along the lines of "oh, I'll just enjoy it stock for a while" ......Well, that escalated quickly!
So, carbon ceramic brakes, eh? More details please. What caliper will you use, how will you fit, etc?
Are the BS turbos a direct bolt on or?
Carbon fiber driveshaft? Is that from a BS as well? What's necessary for the instal?
Oh, one last thing... did I mention how ****** ********* AWESOME this thread is so far?

Your worst nightmare...
Thanks for all the well wishes. Of course I wanted to keep the car stock, honestly. Only reason I purchased was due to the exclusivity of the parts. It's not every day these things pop up for sale. Just had to buy them. SGC is a great person, very upfront with everything and sold me everything at a very decent price. He has moved on to a bigger and a much faster platform. Feels like he is almost passing the baton.
When these will get installed?, hopefully the minute I find some breathing room at work.

The BS turbos should be bolt right on, of course minor modifications most likely, the drive shaft is Renntech and it is not OEM for BS.

So much for stock
Jody, I was also looking into getting a driveshaft for the E but was told the torque will shred it to bits.. looks like you'll be pushing the same whp if not more looking at your mod sheet so I wonder how the CF driveshaft will hold up.
