Once I got the downpipe on I was ready to fire it up.
E85 tested good!
Fired up and driving under its own power. First time in over 2 years
First journey on the street
Engine bay almost done
First trip to the gas station

Road trip to get tuned
20psi and 20° of timing on the first real long pull! Bitch was pulling! Maxed out the FIC 127lb Bosch injectors on that pull. We backed off on the tune up until I get some 1600cc injecors and add an inline Bosch 044 to help the magnafuel 4303 out.
Had a pretty good amount of boost creep so I am also adding a second waste gate.
That's basically where I stand for now. Taking some time off of work at Christmas so hopefully I can get that done and start making some 20+ psi pulls.
Tubby's first winter in a few years
