AZRR CYM FD Build Coming Together

His wastegate lines are A1! I can attest to that...it is the first thing I look over on any FD I see. Hate to have what happened to me, happen to anyone else.

I can't wait to see this car on the road!

Ditto

Actually, I can't wait for a ride in this car!

Looking good Tim.

Your "event" caused me to redo mine within two weeks of that thread.

I still get a little sick thinking about that! I can't imagine being you!

Sweet looking FD though, hood fits well. Love the build, good parts choices and a well executed plan. Top notch!

Tim has what we like to call, "Attention to detail."

If you are me...and after all that work and time, you lose an engine like that...you go NA V8...that is what happens.

Thanks Classic. Appreciate the compliments! Can't wait to get the final few details sorted out and start the break in period!

LOLOLOL!!!! Thanks Brian. What a politically correct way to say that I'm anal retentive. Oh well, I love detail, what can I say. From one "detail" person to another, I consider it a huge compliment since I know you've got the bug as well.

Well, we ran again on Saturday, this time for more than 30 minutes. Ahhh, the smell of curing heat wrap on your downpipe. Nice

Anyway, all the fuel leaks are fixed now, however, I need to shore up a small oil leak. Wideband will be in on Tuesday, so hopefully we can get a map loaded by Wed and start driving her.

Here are todays progress pics on my undertray and IC hood shroud mockups. Should have these items completed by this coming weekend as well.

Wow. It seems everybody has a horror story with this. I will make sure to be very careful with this in my upcoming build, which, BTW, is a step closer from having just bought the turbo today.
