Getting there. The car is closer than me knee. Should be buttoned up in another week or so pending nothing else comes up. I need to get some pics of them but if you know anyone interested in a set of pfadt inverted adjustable shocks please let me know. They will be priced to sell quick as I have no use for them since I have a set of ridetechs now.

I'll be on the lookout. I'd love to know how the ridetech's ride once you get it back up and running. I'm running LG's right now, which are ok, but it is the one mod I'd have skipped if I did it again.

Checked on my turd earlier today. Everything is pretty much done except for the pulley stuff. We discussed what pulley we are gonna throw on it and ordered some E85 to make sure the tune is correct since it has the flex fuel kit on it.

Once the last couple of parts get in its all about tuning it and getting it detailed so I can have the ZR1 spoiler put on.

I won't be using this all the time but since I need to make sure the initial tune is on actual E85 I had to get it. The car will be on a flex fuel kit so I can run any % after that. Just waiting on my balanced to come back from ATI and my car will be all set.

Nice. We have it located everywhere here but I have often thought about getting a 55gallon drum of that. My boss just emailed me pricing for everything from VP(that he might use)...no E85 on the price list. I'll have to call and find out.

Ok so quick update. ATI wouldn't exchange the 10 rib kit for 8 rib. Good thing is A&A makes a 10 rib procharger bracket and Dallas Performance makes 10 rib procharger pulleys. I'm going out of town again so I'll deal with the car when I can but atleast I have everything settled on what I'm gonna do.

Another thing I bought recently was a DSX flex fuel display to accompany my DSX flex fuel sensor kit. This will tell me exactly what percentage the car is on versus guessin.
