Exhaust Manifold came in, going to clean up and polish the insides. Going to need to port the wastegate hole and get an adapter to v-band.





Adapter came in mail as well. 3 day shipping from Sweden







ECU w/ Wiring showed up





GCU



Nice 4" thick intercooler. Might look at V-Mounting it?



I also (hopefully) canceled my order for the Full Blown 485 kit and ordered a surge tank. This tank was only a tiny bit more than the Full Blown kit and includes two pumps. Should eliminate any fueling issues.







also bought a fuel filter with integrated check valve. Wondering if it would be work checking/removing factory filter. It's really not replaceable though. So it would be replacing the fuel basket top.




With the fuel system change, I plan on upgrading to -8an feed. Looking into hard lining the feed lines. It ends up being a decent amount cheaper, although more time consuming. I also have started looking into possibly running hard line for some of the trans cooler lines. Again, mostly because it's a large cost saving with no real downside other than time consumption.

Dropped off the shimless bucket lifters off at the Machine shop today along with the cams. He said I should have the head back by the end of the week. I am hoping to get a garage spot here soon so I can start tearing the car down for everything.

VS Racing had a christmas sale and I was able to snag a Billet Wheel dual ballbearing 67/66 for a good price. 4 week wait for that, but shouldn't hold me back any haha. Especially with the fact I haven't heard anything about quite a few of the parts I ordered for black friday. Mostly intake manifold, engine sensors, and valve covers/coil mount kit.
