nice, now that I've changed my plans a bit I'm debating on a 10 pt or not. The car will be mostly for rtreet sacing (lol), and its a t top and I think the 10 pts look award with the tops off

back on topic, looking great and good luck, between the E85 and no pressure drop ( no IC ) that bitch should be insane!

Injectors are on their way via Jon at FIC. Got the 160 high imp. Big thanks to him, I always appreciate someone who can kind of walk me threw a process step by step, im still learning, and he was more than happy to help. Highly recommended. Lets just hope they tune out as good as everyone claims!

FIC is great for the injectors.

You are running HPTuners, right? Did he send you the table for the injector data already?

What are you thinking you will start your tuning?

Yes he did, Im hoping to have the car running in a few weeks, and then work out all the bugs. So probably going to take it to get tuned sometime in August.

I got the pattern made for the exhaust plate, just need to take a pick and post it.

Coilpack relo brackets got made, and on the car, as well as most the wiring, and BOV. Will post up some pics tonight.

Also have to thank the guys at Race Parts Solutions. Ordered a lot of stuff for my kit from them, and they are just great to deal with. THANK YOU RPS, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

Dude i have no clue. Been trying to find a cheaper alternative to MSD universal kit. Pisses me off when you have to pay 130 bucks for something like spark plug wires. AND YOU HAVE TO ASSEMBLE THE ****'S!!!

Got any suggestions?

Im going with the firecore50's...just because they make them (no assy req'd).
I hate how some wires are when you go to pull them out and they come apart so having them preassembled seems to be the way to go imo.

I used the MSD's and hated them.

I used Taylors 8.5mm cut to length wires. They were $55 of the top of my heads and the straight ends (LT1 style boots) were $18. I then ordered the HEI heat shield protectors for $50-60. Worked great.

That's what I'm using to relocate my coilpacks on my GTO

Here is the awaited diagram of the side dump exhaust plate. I think all the info included you should be able to duplicate rather easily. I ddint spend but about 2 hours making it. And the hardest part was mounting the damn think straight, and drilling the rivets. Enjoy!
