Haha, it's absolutely worth it though. An installation video is coming soon from Gearhead so just keep posted on that.

Have you priced what an upgraded IC runs on other platforms???

And this one being not only custom, but one that's gone through multiple revisions and upgrade(s) from its' initial version from concept at that.....?

I'll guess probably not.

$800 for the part alone is peanuts.

If you're squabbling over that, perhaps you should just sell your SHO now, and save yourself some headaches.

LOL.

custom parts are hard enough to get into development, forget about production.  been down that road WAY too many times.  glad to see gearhead putting the hammer down, full steam ahead on things!

Some uneducated F150 owner and owner of an inferior tune will negatively influence a SHO owner to do something dumb like that unfortunately lol

The idea of a builtin drain plug is appealing tho.
