I guess u did put the motor through the top Lol. I still think that kit is beautiful. I wish i could still go turbo but the shortblock i bought is for nitrous. I would only be able to put 9lbs on it :-(

Well, got more done! its all together, 95% complete, just need to install my new tick adjustable master cylinder, and get an alternator pig tail!
Turbo's behind the radiator!
Turbo mounted, and yes i removed the red cap, i just didnt want any debris falling in.
Everything mounted and ready to rock! Custom Radiator shroud!
A side engine bay shot
Another view
Only thing left is hooking up the vacuum lines for boost controller solenoid to wastegate, Which brings me to a question. The EBoost street instructions show it plumped from the turbo compressor, will it matter if im running the boost source from my vacuum block? Any helps greatly appreciated

Got her cranked up today!! didnt get a video, but will load one tomorrow! She sounds NASTY!!!! It started right up!! Running extremley rich, but that'll be fixed very very soon!! I ran into a wiring issue with fuel pump earlier, kept me tied up for over an hour. For anyone wondering, and doing a external pump, REFERENCE the signal wire to your new relay from the underhood fuse box from the FACTORY fuel pump relay off pin 86, the green/white wire, i believe this is only for 99+. If you use the red wire from the smaller fuse box, the pump will stay on as the green/white colored wire sends the signal from the PCM.

do not drive it on those injectors. I wouldnt even have started it. You run the risk washing the cylinders down. trailer it
I pulled my pcm, took it to the tuner, had him upload a base tune with the right injector values and then started it. still trailered it there.
glad its up and running though!
