Considering it does and will play an integral role in this application, it wasn't just a meticulous correction on my part, as I wouldn't go so far and correct a mistake on a non relevant term.
So when do you plan to get a 6th Gen? Cause it seems you're in the 6th Gen section an awful lot for someone that has a 5.5. I think you secretly love us. 

Just thought I'd help out since when items like that are misspelled, it almost seems as if you don't know what you're talking about.

Update 11/6/2007
OK today we started her up for the first time (I got the VID). We installed the Air/Fuel computer in the glove box and the GReddy Profec B Spec II Electronic Boost Control Gauge under the drivers side console.
411: Info about GReddy Profec B Spec II
The PRofec B-Spec2 integrates all the basics of an electronic boost controller, with additional useful options. Use the built-in boost gauge (psi or kPa) to tune in a Lo. & Hi. SET to raise the boost pressure, then optimize consistency and response with GAIN and adjust the START GAIN to set initial wastegate response. Also built-in are optional: Warning point, Warning limiter, and peak & last boost record. Compatible with integral and external wastegates and our RSS or SCC’s optional speed trigger.
We also modified the Kinetix vacuum adapter to a "T-Adapter" so it could receive the Tial Wastegate vacuum hose.


The shop also installed a wingnut to the chassis ground for the trunk mounted battery so if I ever have to disconnect it I no longer have to mess with my Stinger terminals.

Some pictures of the almost phase two finished project.

This is great for the 6thgen Max's It took alot b***s to put your project out in the open knowing you would be criticized about how you should do this and that. Sharing the info for 6thgen's for future installs says alot about you, I and we definately appreciate it. Your setup looks damn good!!!! I cant wait to see it in person, I'll make a trip just to see your car.This is a hell of a break through!!
Yea I can't wait to hear that thing, the BOV you choose I have heard it before, its a nice whoooose so it doesn't totally give away the turbo. When I go supercharged I want the Blitz BOV that sounds like a Squirel Mincer (jeremy clarkson phrase)

Thanks Mack, anyone who knows me knows I don't roll dirty. We need to get the work done first before I make your eyes misty with beauty. Last, here is the YouTube VIDs of the VERY first key turn with the Turbo, then a short follow on VID with a little juice!!!
