we ended up getting two inches and it's all off the roads so i can put some more miles on it now! stupid weather people. the car is running like a champ no leaks. still got 400 miles till the clutch is broke in and i'll do an oil change then. I still need to order an injector wiring harness, zzp brfps, werks fuel pump, and some wastegate springs and then i can start running e85 and 20 psi!!!

So after some issues finding my injectors, my buddy lenr me his 80s and we got base tune at 10 psi dialed in. Unfortunately I had to go to work, so should be on dyno for adjusting and upping boost tomorrow morning.

Well I dropped my bumper off today and I put my new v band clamp on so no more exhaust leak! I also installed my powell tow hook and snapped a quick picture with my phone.

just over 400 miles. I'll probably change the oil this weekend. Should I wait to dyno until I hit like 2000 miles or could I do it saturday after I change the oil? I wanna see what i'm at before I turn up the boost and then one after on the same dyno to see the difference!

if you want to see difference go for it, they did almost 30 pulls tuning mine. you should be fine after 500-750, just make sure clutch is ready for it

It will be fine. If your dynoing to get numbers its not worth it, if youre dynoing trying to dial in the tune I can understand since it won't be full throttle pulls all the time. The main issue is the ring being seated most rings seat with 500 to 1500 miles rarely have I seen them take longer. If beat on too quickly they won't seat.

Well i decided to take my car on the interstate after i washed out the radiator to get all the bugs out and my tire decided to eat my passenger fender liner so I figured why not just get the ss ones for both sides. I about $h1t my pants when I heard it cuz I thought something else was wrong.

Well I drove around town last night until I hit 500 miles. I'm gonna be changing the oil today to 5w30 conventional. I'm keeping my fingers crossed this spec clutch holds up and doesn't end up like all the bad reviews say.
