Ah, I ask because I didnt see a tvs installation manual on their site and I just read through the 112 one. The hardest part looks to be the fuel pump installation.

Maybe it would easier to mount the intercooler and then work my trans cooler in their somewhere...

IMO the hardest part is getting all the vacum lines for the bypass valve, and the EVAP to fit around the alternator. It seems like everything ended up trying to fit in the same place. Other than that, it's pretty straightforward.

I did a hydroboost swap so the brake booster hose is one thing I dont have to worry about so it should free up a little room. Now I just to decide if I want to do blower or trans first...

I just sunk 2k into the rear end to make sure thats bulletproof, so the only thing I have left is the driveshaft and trans. Pretty sure the transfer case will be fine.

so the truck is done. Still having tuning issues. Truck is running with minimal throttle at 10.3-10.4 AFR and bogging pretty bad under very minimal throttle. Its temperamental. During the bog it can free up and quickly accelerate. Kinda awkward.

I'll get some idle sound clips depending on what time I get home from work tomorrow.
