Small update........

My ecu and injectors just shipped from JWT. Wow that was expensive
$595 for the ecu tune
$30 to flow test the injectors
$20 for shipping

but thats the price you pay for a quality tune.

Time for a update............
I've got a lot done since i last posted. I pulled the motor/trany, installed the new clutchmasters clutch, had the oil return bung welded, installed new DW 550cc injectors, and a few other odds and ends.
I hit a little snag with a exhaust mani stud that broke off in the head. What a PITA, i broke an easy out off it the stud but eventualy got it out. I ended up helicoiling the head due to me damaging the threads.
It's not complete yet but very close.
On with the pics..........


i ordered a 90 degree coupler to finish off the hot side pipes

my pcv set up

intercooler set up

bottom mounts

passenger side pipes

drivers side


cold side going to the TB
This intercooler kit is a Godspeed ka24de kit sold on ebay. There is a lot of bends but no need to relocate the battery.
