2014 has started off great. I ordered parts on Tuesday 12/31 and low and behold, I had a package at my door yesterday.

Only opened one for the time being to take a picture.
Received my Fed Ex tracking from Precision and the wastegates are on the truck for delivery today. Those were purchased yesterday. Let's hope this good luck continues. 2013 sucked for luck.

I will also be waiting for the A-arms and brakes before installing them. That way I can do it all at once.

No I don't have any personally. I've been through quite a few threads on YB documenting other's successes with them and results shown thru trap speed gains etc.
I mentioned them because he spent money on all the other high dollar parts and seemed to overlook something simple. Not everyone wants to do junkyard builds...

I talked to MWC about it for a while when ordering. They make the Pro Race kit and they also make a Sportsman (S-series) kit. MWC said the race kit will wear a little faster on the street and also not recommended for heavy traffic. I am still going to street drive my car a fair amount, but it is rarely in heavy traffic. Where there is heavy traffic, I don't get too aggressive anyhow with the skinny's up front. So I figured I would spend the extra ~$100, and save the 5.5lbs and go with the pro kit.
The Pro Kit weighs 23.7lbs.
The Sportsmans Kit weighs 29.1lbs.
The S-Series Solid Rotor weighs 10 pounds; the Pro Race Slotted Rotor weighs 7.3 pounds.

Its better to save every bit of unsprung weight that you can. It makes a big difference.
Nice thread by the way. Love the build.
Sorry for the mess also, im still learning the form.

As I said right at the beginning of my thread, I will gladly speak my mind on problems/issues I had with my car, as well as what I thought of vendors. I find information like this is very useful when looking who to use.
MAP Sensor:
I honestly don't know what sensor is currently in the car. It is a 3-bar sensor. During my spending spree, I ordered what I thought was a "Delphi / GM 3 Bar Style Map Sensor - 12223861 - 16040749 (US Made)" from LSXTune (website). When going to install the sensor (about 9 months after I bought it), it turned out it wasn't the sensor listed above. I had done a search and it came up as a 3-bar sensor so I thought let's use it. I am not sure what it is but I am guessing some China knockoff piece of ****.

Thanks for the good words.
I didn't want to take shortcuts with the MAP sensor and thought spending a bit more and getting an authentic one would be the right approach. Well, that backfired on me. The LSXtune jackass has not replied back to my email either. Crook!
Hopefully you didn't get the cheap junk I got.

Spent a little time Friday night putting some parts on. Reinstalled the electric cutout. Also swapped the Chinese wastegates out for the new Precision PW39's. They look much nicer.

The upper and lower A-arms are supposed to arrive sometime next week from Midwest Chassis. Hopefully start swapping that stuff out in the next couple weeks.
