Talking FINALLY- its alive!!

Well, after weeks of being under the knife, the ol T/A started for the first time last night- reborn BLOWN! Only problem I had last night was the relay for the in-line fuel pump, so I’m going to get a new one this evening. But that should take me all of 5 minutes to replace. No leaks anywhere from what I could see. Sounds awesome!!! The whistle is not tooo loud, but its damn loud enough! I love it. I’m so happy to finally be to this part of the install! I’ll be driving it all day tomorrow and hopefully no bugs pop up.
