Going on the dyno in about an hour and a half. Car is setup and ready to go, did some last minute logs and tweaks. Thanks Frost!
I cant get his ******* boost controller to work. It says 1 turn = 1 psi but Im up to 11 turns and still getting WG spring pressure(8psi)

Yep, waiting for the truck manifold parts to get here. Im going to do a before and after dyno, the only difference will be the hot piping. This way well see if the ebay is as restrictive as everyone is saying.

Honestly, first run, no knock. 2nd run, I fucked up and didnt even get to see the log. I was running 15* on that run. I lost 30hp so it was either the clutch slipping or getting knock retard.

Old clutch assembly
New Clutch
The old clutch has no texture left and is pretty much smooth. lol

So pretty
Done. Hydros took about 45 minutes to bleed but thats what I get for replacing my ENTIRE hydraulic system. I also did the drill mod while I was at it. Car runs fine and so far, all Ive done is move it back and forth in the garage. Theres no chatter or any noises coming from the clutch so Ill say I did it right.
Overall, it wasnt that bad. Parts sucked more than others(master cylinder was the worst) combined with not knowing what I was doing, made for alot of frustration.
I need to thank Brad(Q) for helping out with everything.

Man what an ordeal Ive had. I had a truck manifold kit on my car for about a week. I ended up taking it off because I couldnt get it to clear the front sway bar. Im gonna redo my **** over the winter so the ebay kit will have to hold me over til then.
Anyways, heres a dyno vid that I promised like a month ago:
