Yeah I don't think it will last til next year either, lol. This week I am going to do more scanning and hopefully narrow down the 2-3 shift issue, whether it's the trans or the converter. If it's just the converter I'll send it in for restall and go on my merry way. If it does end up being the trans, I'll probably just enjoy the car as it is and pick up a trans in the fall. I plan on going with a Level 5, either RPM or FLT. Tough decision and I haven't made it yet!
keliente, very nice and most impressive, I can only hope that I do so well. Did you happen to get anymore pictures of the UMI K-member and the fit with the turbos, ducts, and so on? How much did you need to reclock the compressor side and are the inlet ducts or discharge ducts being pinched.
The fit is good, though. I had to clock the driver's side turbo very minimally. None of the inlet or discharge ducts are being pinched. On the driver's side it is slightly tight and covers up access to one of the k-member bolts, but it's not really a big deal. I was very pleased with the quality of the UMI k member.

That sux I would have liked to of seen more close up pic's of the whole install but I understand the camera thing. Wasn't until I bought the wife a new camera for her birthday did we finally get a good camera. And I defiantly believe I will be going with the UMI k-member now, as it just looks tougher and living here in pot hole paradise I known my suspension will be taking a beating, and I really don’t want to brake a k-member. Thanks for the reply and help, once again awesome job and I hope you continue to drive it like you stole it. Enjoy

Looks nice keliente. The cars are definitely a LOT of fun with the turbo's. I always get a grin on my face hearing them spooling up. It's hard not to lean into it just to hear them. But by then I am usually WAY over the speed limit. 
I get there so much faster now! It's crazy.

How hard was it to install the engine w/ turbos on it from underneath?
I was originally thinking that with the turbos mounted, you would not be able to install the engine from underneath.

That is freakin awesome with stock parts!!!! I am jealous. It is amazing what some cars will do with hardly any work(other than your turbos) that others cant with alot of work.

Good races there. Do you not have any 1/4 mile passes yet?
If you dont mind me asking, how much was your tune? Just want to compare to what I have been quoted locally. PM me if you do not wish to post here.
Thanks,
