Default So even with declared value of $2k, the ECU was sent back to you from the US as "warranty repair"...
with no GST/PST or duties levied on the shipment? What carrier did your sender use?

Default That's the plan. PJ K04s, ASP fueling, South Bend clutch. Already APR 2+ (DPs, bipipe, etc.)
The lineup for the "how fast does Dave get his license suspended" pool starts here.

No taxes or duties and pretty sure it was UPS that Eurocode used.

Drive over the border, pick it up, and return with some brakes in your trunk ala Tgr_Clw.

Great, thanks. I'll look into it. Seems the most logical, secure way to do it.

Default I don't think the LM's will withstand that kind of horsepower.
Good karma = donate to poor bloke with a slow stock B7 (me).

No special instructions? How'd they ship it back to you, Dave? USPS?
