I'm actually transferring to Hawaii and I'm pretty excited about it. I might be selling my Novi1000 this spring to upgrade to a Novi2000. I will put together a custom kit like we built for Travis and probably put it on ebay. It will have all new oil lines, fittings, brackets, etc.

Hawaii...sounds like a nice vacation to me. When/if you throw your kit out for sale be sure to post or something, i would really like to give it a try and it seems like a great investment for the good ol tax return

I certainly will. I always post up items in the for sale section when I put them on ebay.

The big thing is these kits are made for 2002 Ram and Duango 4.7Ls so you have to do some rearranging in the engine bay but its not too bad. Like I said, you can do it in a day.

LOL, I will just be happy to ship the truck to Hawaii! I was afraid I wouldn't get to ship it but it looks like I will get to ship both the wife's Borrego and the truck.

But this kit is still for sale. Less than 2k is a steal considering these kits were like 6k new and Trucy spent 2K on just his blower head unit.

Is there anything keeping someone from making this kit working on a 6 spd. truck? I know it would bolt to the engine, but in the way of tuning? I assume the SCT works for manual trans too?

SCT doesn't tune trannys at all. You would be good to go.

Oh man, Hawaii isnt cheap from what I hear. Lol. Atleast you get to take the vehicals.

Are you planning on boosting the Borrego? I thought Hyundai/Kia were planning on making a 500hp 4.6l Borrego, but I dont even see it on Kia's lineup any more.

Things are expensive in Hawaii but I'm still looking forward to it. I will be taking spare trucks parts with me, lol.

The Borrego has been a huge hit overseas, especially with its diesel version. Unfortunately it didn't do so well in the U.S. In 2011 the revised Borrego is supposed to be back in the US again.
