been a LONGGGG road indeed. i'll be sure to post up some final pics and maybe a dyno video at least 
going to relocate the coil packs underneath the dashboard and run the spark plug wires through the fire wall. that'll clean up the engine bay alot.

back from the dead.
talk about the longest build EVER. October will mark 5 years!!
I will say that the past 1.5 years i've been forced to wait on other people. but alas, should start tuning in the next week. Will post more pics later. (or if the trend continues, you'll see me post back in another year.)
PCM, Fuse blocks, coil packs all inside of car now

well put about 300 miles on the car 2 weekends ago driving it around getting the tune done. Only took it up 10lbs bc my pump was cutting out at higher RPMs so i ordered new filters and also sent off the pump to magnafuel to be upgraded to a 750 (magnafuel 4303)
pump comes back this week. I'll put it in and throw some real boost at it with some actual timing. car felt great on a few short 10psi pulls. got nailed by a state trooper for 107 in a 70 though. lol was a very interesting conversation but he was about as cool as could be given the situation.
lights in the passenger mirror is the trooper.

terrible 3rd gear pull (just audio)

a spray nozzle will go on to lubricate the cluster gears sooner rather then later.

well time to finish this build thread. car is DONE. haven't thrown it on the dyno, but apparently its making some pretty good power. vid'z below are against my buddy's TT camaro. he was on 10lbs and said that's 720'ishrw for him. a few folks who have ridden in the car say their butt dynos say 8xx. maybe a good guess is 850rw range. Dunno
Raced a buddies stripper Z w/ LS3, D1 +meth. making 707RW and fetched him good. Video on that race is at the bottom but all you see is my speedo and tach.But it gives you a good reference on how fast it spools and hits boost. I'll throw it on the dyno in a few weeks. these races were on 15lbs and 93oct.
Raced a friend on his ZX10R and fetched him at 140 and passed him.
I'll come back to update thread with video's pictures as time passes.
