But I built the system [body/engine/gearbox] in Ca. Then it may as well be domestic US...

No one will ever look for a Lotus in the JDM section....

That's an awful lot of boost in there! Are you running C16; i'd say definitely not CA 91 octane!

Nothing like blue printed, polished, balanced engine... cams, etc. etc. ?
