We'll get the diff pulled out, and hopefully the new one in, with the new bushings, and work our way forward... trans, turbos etc...oil cooler and plumbing, AMS 1000 Boost controller... etc... I'm hoping we are finished with her by Friday, but no promises....
Can't wait for the pic's to be posted.

Corey and I were both surprised by how small the AMS 1000 Boost controller is... Think about the size of a pack of cigarettes...

We are going to terminate the wires and have the controller in the console. Nothing else will go into that compartment, other than my phone charger which will be plugged in and not an issue.

I'll post some up as we progress through it....

I thought it was pretty small. Saw some Suzuki Hayabusa's running them and it was under the seat.

Heck, this thing would fit under PQ's seat...

It just seems like it's ten feet tall and bullet proof in the ads... so in reality it's 2 inches by 3 inches and bullet proof...

Nice, I'll keep my eye open for them. Not much going on with Pumpkin right now until closer to spring.

Well, we started making progress on the differential...

It was a learning process for me... but a good one...

Right after lunch we put the transmission back in the car so Corey and I could start fabricating the fittings for the new turbos.

I got a few new pictures and will have more as time goes...

I want to send a shout out to Joe, Racer778 for the assistance. He stopped by and got his hands right in the thick middle of it all...Mike stopped by late this afternoon and offered some moral support...
