It LIVES!!!!!! Well sort of, starts and stalls shortly after. We can get it to stay running by restricting the air flow, going to throw a tune at it soon and see how it rolls. Good to know I can actually make things work lol. Found an exhaust leak and fuel leak so I've still got some work to do.

Been awhile since I posted an update. After about a month of tuning with infraredline it's running awesome. Motor is taking 20 psi very well, pulls like a truck, roasting tires to 70 mph lol. Hits peak boost about 4300, but I know the intercooler doesn't flow as well as it could.
Got it on the track with the top mount and managed 12.7@115 before the throw out bearing started giving up. Very hot day so I'm sure that's why it got angry. Need to work on my launches but I'm pretty happy after not tracking it for 2 years.
It's the last week with the top mount. Goes off to DukeFab on the 10th to get the front mount, custom charge pipes, and TTR manifold installed. It'll be nice to finally have a hood back on the car.

That FMIC is going to make a huge difference! The way the flow tapers off up top a little now will change and itll make more power on the boost its on now, not to mention itll keep gaining as you turn it up. Seems like its running strong as it sits though. 117mph traps on your next run showed a nice gain for the little change in boost you made. Wish you would have charged the laptop so you could have turned up more

It moves out very well and everyone including some of the track staff were very impressed with it.
Laptop will be in my possession ahead of time before the next track day lol
For a few runs I was quicker than an Aston Martin but he ended up running a 12.4 lol. Still very happy with it and can't wait to see how far we can push it.
