Message Had my engine shipped out to SGP for their long-block package #2 about a month ago and got it back this past Friday. Should have it up and running by next Thursday. Overall I am satisfied with SGPs work however there is just one thing that bothers me. When we had the engine shipped out, by truck frieght, it was put in an actually engine crate/pallet. When it was returned however it was shipped as you see in the pictures below with the plastic wrapped and with the one red strap shown...

All you who have shipped your engines out to SGP, did they ship the motor back out to you like this? Would really appreciate some feedback.

Anyhoo, I should have her up and running by Thursday of next week which is good because the car has been done for like 5 months. This is the list of mods im getting put on while the motor is out...

-Jwt sport 500s
-jwt intake
-jwt ecu
-nismo 555cc inj.
-greddy profec b spec 2
-ud pulley
-howe radiator
-hks ssq bov's
-hks hardpipe kit
-labree exhaust (yes all the way up to the dps)
-greg duprees dp's

Next on my list will obviously be intercoolers but after this ordeal im gonna have to see if i can afford them. Gotta couple questions..
-Could someone who has a similiar setup give me a hp and torque estimate?
-How much boost should be run max on this setup on 93?

Thanks in advance, I apperciate the help BIG TIME!
