Mine is soooo close to done it is almost painful. Pretty much everything is installed and in place. The SD tune is just about done. The tuner has most of the tables dialed in pretty close and the car is doing great with partial throttle. Once we get a couple days of good weather here, 55+ degrees outside, the tune can be finished on the dyno. Lastly the cage is getting redone. The old one was not good for 9.99 or faster
