welp they laid off my whole drilling rig. so that makes me unemployed. This will be a hiccupp in the build but oh well. I bought the turbos i just may not go victor jr right now. I just wanna thank our wonderful president for his lack of interest in the Oil and Gas industry and his stupid stimulus pork bill. I know im not alone in the unemployed line. So lets drink a beer together :cheers:

Made some good progress today. I made mounting brackets for the air to air intercooler and installed it. I also finished bolting up the down pipe and waste gates. Finally today i relocated my pcm and e fan J box. I hade to trim the pcm mount and make new L backets to mount it to the fuse box. I also was able to get the front Baer brakes on as well.

More today
Relocated the heater hose lines
Ran vacuum lines to wastegates
Test fit the surge tank
Btw that tank was the water tank for the old A2W setup its temporary till i can afford for rick to make me a nicer one all this will be mounted in a aluminum tray and for security im getting a daytona flush lid.
All i lack is welding the 02 bungs to the exhaust and 2 fitting for the surge tank. I also need plug wires can anyone give me a suggestion on a good set i have to have tight boots and if i could build my own that would be better. They need to withstand alot of heat
Still need to order my Optima Yellow top

Watch your fingers!!! :jest: Very cool! Sounds like it wants to run. What's the idle set at? What's left to do?
I like your fuel system, what kinda fuel lines are those, the black ones? How much did they run you? (doing my fuel system right now) :)

it was running in open loop cause i dont have the 02 welded up. the fue lines are just black nylon line with steal braided in the rubber. i think the are XRP brand. Left to do is minor i need to change plugs and finish the exhaust other than that she is ready for tuning and logging.
