I'm keeping an eye out for a decent auto Duratec ZX5 or even ZTW, so 05-07. Might have a line on one. Auto is just about required for the better half, and seeing as my Jeep has a stick I'm good with that.
I'd love to get a SVT going with PWSC, but that might be an actual "project" car for me after this one is sorted.
I'd love to get pretty much my 07 ZX5 SES back again and just Duratec turbo-kit that. I wasn't anticipating zero support from FSwerks on the Zetec automatic, considering it's the SAME DAMN TRANSMISSION as the one in the Duratec cars (4F27E) and tuning it shouldn't be any harder than tuning a Duratec auto turbo setup. I think Vik either needs a vacation or I'm starting to lose faith in FSWerks over how this is an issue. Seriously, if someone wants to clarify how tuning a Zetec auto setup is any different (aside from the phyiscal manifold position reversals) than a Duratec auto turbo setup... let's hear it.
If turbo doesn't become a reality, I'll just do a bunch of NA goodies to it, consider the Lentech setup and call it a day... and then go get something else to build and play with.
