Was home over easter for 3 days finished the wiring went to crank it with no plugs to get the oil primed and the starter was a real slow crank. Put two plugs in and it wouldn't turn it over. Two factory starters same problem. They didn't turn strong off the car so I ordered a powermax from jegs maybe may 2nd it'll fire. If I had a dollar for every stupid issue we've had in the past few years it'd pay for half this project

after 2 nights of changing wiring scratching our heads and testing different things we found we don't have a good enough ground. Need some bigger wire. Accidentally fired a cylinder when trying things

Question. If you have a M6 and are shooting for 9.80? Why don't you run a 4.10 gears, they are like perfect for M6 and 3.73 is perfect for A4 on the street. Is it because you're going to spray?

we put the battery in the trunk. we have that all fixed needed bigger wire. were on a new problem now with the 24x system seems like our firing order might be all mixed up and were getting a code
