Okay, quick update. There aren't many pictures right now because well... I've been stuck trying to get bluetooth to connect to my phone to transfer the files over. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Today I finished up the fuel system. My injectors are installed. 900cc/min primaries and 1360cc/min secondaries. I also finished up my fuel lines. Spent 60 bones getting some -6AN fittings to make everything work. It does, and looks half way decent. I also hacked up my AFM/throttle body pipe to connect to the turbo inlet and the AFM (Since RTek still haven't released the AFM delete yet) but in doing so doesn't leave much of any room to connect any sort of filter. I may have to figure something out but at least to drive it or start the break in process I can leave it as is. I also figured out the oil drain size and length I need, and have a few small details to work out. I also did the base hook up of both the EGT's and the Boost gauge. The EGT's have a weird hook up. You do not hook them up to an ignition source or 12v switched power like you do with the boost gauge, you actually hook them up to an always on 12v constant line. Apparently it knows when you turn the key on or off just by the voltage drop when you switch the car to acc.

What's still left for me to do is:
get BOV flange welded to charge piping.
finish exhaust
finish manifold
Finish wiring power to the ProSport gauges
finish wiring in the LC-1 (no need for an op-amp circuit, switch, etc--just won't be running NB)
hook up oil drain hose
install manifold
install oil injectors
prime engine
stab CAS (anyone want to offer the basic procedure to do that?--I think I know how, but just would like to be safe)
install 1.75-1.5 T fitting for radiator
prime fuel system
check for leaks
crank engine

Think I can get those done in a day? I think I can!
