I'll try and get the trans back into the car tonight and post some pics.

When you compare turbos it is smaller than the S95. Had a minor setback today, we had a small portion of one of the wires going to the AMS solenoid exposed and fried all the wiring to the solenoids, 1/2 of the wiring in the loom was destroyed also. Rewired the entire system and is all good now. Here is what we got accomplished...
Installed bumper cover
Installed shift light
Cleaned up the wiring
Reinstalled the front suspension
Battery secured

Car looks like its 100% track ready, going to go to dinner and recheck the list to make sure everything is done.

The car is loaded up and we're going to head to the dyno in a couple hours. Plan is to see how much boost it takes to max out the dyno. I'll report back around 10-11:00.
