Haven't really been on in a while but I finally found the gumption to wire in the trans brake and Smooth Stage. I wanted to use the old HVAC Controller instead of just having a hole in the dash. So I cannibalized my old one and made the mount for the bump box. I also want the harness to be quick disconnect at the shifter Incase I need to remove it for anything. Everything is all wired up (besides the 2 step it hasn't come in yet) just need to get it on the ground and test it out, didn't end up finishing till almost 1am. I want to call ATI tomorrow morning though, when I tested the transbrake with the just the key on it's very hard to hear. I'm used to nitrous solenoids that are fairly loud, I can hear this one it's just seems abnormally quiet. Its an ATI Compu-Flow valve body so the solenoid is internal so that could be a contributing factor. It only draws one amp also. I'm still waiting on the 2 step but that won't take long at all to wire once it comes in. Just hoping there's no issues with this solenoid.

Finally received the Boost Controller. The gauge I slightly bigger than the usual 2"1/16 dash pod so it needed a little persuasion. Need to order a few more airlock fittings to run all the boost lines. Finally talked to the tuner I need to order a set of injectors. Most likey going to run a set of ID1000's or FIC 1000's. I had planned on running E85 and 1300's but for as much as the truck sits and how corrosive E85 is I've decided to run C16 so 1000's should be enough....I hope haha.

Lol literally just waiting for mother nature to get her **** together so we can get to the dyno! Unfortunately the rear end is the weak link now, so I'm not sure how much track time it's going to see this year. I'd like to do a spool but I'm still trying to figure out what to do with the whole c-clip problem. Can't find anyone that makes an eliminator kit. Next winter it'll get a 9" but until then I might need to stay off the trans brake.

Finally got the clam shell for the column. Since my truck used to be an auto and that has since been removed it left a giant hole in the column and it bothered the hell out of me lol so I finally tracked down a VIN for a manual truck and ordered this guy.
