alot of it has been done myself, a couple time i have had people come help but they dont know what the hell they are doing... so its more like babysitting then anything else... im the lone ranger i guess

ok update... i have everything done but the turbo and SS FTC im going with a custom turbo setup and i will let everyone know how it works out (it barely fits)... the car should finally be done by friday i have some fabricating to do to get the turbo to fit but im already working on it... i also hope 6psi wont blow the engine because of the lack of engine management due to the SS FTC is still not here or in the mail but i dont have a choice i have 8 days to get her up and running before a cross country roadtrip and i have almost no choice but to drive it without a tune... WTF ever though its only money right!

Looking good bro. I think u should wait for the tune man. I know Neox who forged his engine and didnt put his haltech in and it caused him more problems. Be careful. Wheres those pics???

pics will be comming when its done i have gone this far without pics i guess i will just post up the finished product... i wish i could get my Tuner but it has been 7 weeks sence i have paid for it and i havent gotten it yet i might not have a choice!
