the reason their doing that is because every other magazine is doing something with the K engines, so they ran out of ideas and said what the hell we'll mess with the D17

they ran out of ideas and engines to modify and said "CRAP! all we have left is the d17."
ill read it right now and see what else they did to it.

for fuel return they use a 99 si fuel pump bracket cuz it already has a return line built into it, and a custom fuel level sending unit. the ITM is a frankenstein of parts from B, D, and K series parts. then thats where they end the article, so stay tuned for the next issue. they left me with a case of blue ***** on this one. haha

i am so glad there is finally some love given to the d17 from that mag. the thing is the turbo kit they are building is way to elaborite and i hope for gods sakes it makes some power after all of thaT custom work they put in to it. i am exited to see the end result.
