Sounds good. Will be great to see it running down the road !!
haha... maybe just a little tune??

we removed the MAF... so getting everything in line might be in order.


we did get it out and rinsed off on saturday. This thing really whistles as it comes at you. we do need to finishing fabing up the custom exhaust (sans muffler... only has down pipes on it right now.

well... we just found out the whole front was unplugged... the last shop to have the front end apart never plugged the lights back in.

so for the last... year or two the DRLs and the front side marker lights had no power.

thanks guys,
I am hearing that it will be on the dyno tonight, except I am in Minneapolis. so i will only see video.

another issue... I got my front wheels to match the rear F14 Forgestars... and they are the wrong color. There was some major communication break down evidently.
The rears from Brandi are painted gloss black, so I think it I will just have an auto body shop match the rears best they can.

good gracious... this thing's making me nervous.
the last thing you need is another engine not getting enough fuel in a cylinder
