95's have a different puter, the kit would work, bu would require a custom tuned chip inplace of the one VOrtech provides. Other obsticles may occur, but that would be the major one

I was thinking about the T/C until the tranny went south last week, rebuilding it will cost me around $2500. Thats money that I wasn't planning to spend on repairs. so $7200(4500US) for T/C or $4200(2600US) for the S/C is something to think about right now.
Kris how much did you get your zex kit for? I'm trying to buy one off a friend he is asking $700CND. Its new still in the box, is that a good deal?

sprmonky I hate to tell you this but the deal I'm getting is a one time deal its a favour from a friend that owns a local shop here in Edmonton. The going price is $5200CND but I'm getting $1000 off.
Kris I was told that the installation for a zex kit is pretty simple but I've never done that kind of work before. I'll probably have lots of question to ask when you come back.

shaft failure does not harm the engine, although when the shaft failed it sounded like all hell broke loose.

-Mark LOL! ever heard a turbo when it grenades??? i was at a local import shop when a guy with a GS-T eclipse came in. "man, i think my turbo is going out..." the bearings failed and the shaft was just letting the compressor wheel GRIND the housing. luckily, it didnt break the impeller apart so he didnt have to go fishing for pieces throughout his engine...
