2 bar and I'm going to give it a shot. If that fails then a local tuner will be getting some business

I got the hood on, and had the manifold painted and got that back on with the new map in. I'm waiting on my two ic pipes to return with the welded bung and attachment for the bov. I have all the vacuum lines ran, so its pretty damn close. I came up with 82" for the belt, seems long to me though.

I subscribed to this a while back and have been watching. I was wondering about your fuel line with this kit. I put my headers on last night and the driver side is tight against it. Did you have this problem?

I got it running yesterday. Took for a non spirited drive and found out that my wideband needs a better ground. So thats going to be done today, and we will see if we can get some tuning done and get somewhere with it. I'll post up some pictures also. Thanks for coming along the ride with the build. I actually got a snow performance meth kit that I will most likely be throwin on also. I may sell it and get a 2 step
