Default heheheh Im coming over tomorrow.

So when do we start tuning? I need to call conleys to see if they have the ls1 tuner suite in so I can snag it for the weekend. Im ready are you? Looking forward to it. BTW I was talking to A. Futural and I like the idea that I can do a type of lean cruise with the speed density. So I guess your car and mine will be my first three bar tunes. Sounds like fun. Ill be on the road next weekend ready to play?

thanks

I didn't have to cut any wires, just cut open the hole that goes underneath the wheel well and tucked the boxes down there, now I have to change fuses from underneath, but its ok

Looks great man. I love this site when I see projects completed of this nature. It brings the engineer out in all of us. This is why I love sport cars!

Good job!
Andy

yup, had to modify it to clear the steering shaft. You can tell if you compare the two pics I have on there.

as far as spool time goes, Im happy to report that it spools faster then my old single kit used to, that turbo was massive and I guess my calculations payed off. Im getting GOOD partial boost at ~3k I have not gone WOT yet, have to get it aligned first then tuning...

Glad to see it's finished man, sorry I coulden't help more than I did, but I will definately take my rides when it's all tuned out. Lines look real nice, I know those took some time. Red pipes huh, haha. I guess you can dub it the red rocket.
