The whole process of the windshield was earlier in the build thread.

The front end saved roughly 30lbs

Turbo fab is about done. Everything is tacked. Decided to put wastegate in the turbine housing for ease of fitment.

Next up is cage work and wheelie bar install.

Made the trip to drop off the wheelie bars and mounts today. Also dropped off my 5 gallon cell to have one of the 10an bungs cut off to put a -12 in its place.

Having him add a 1/8npt bung to the top of the wastegate and one on the charge pipe for the boost controller. The instructions for the boost leash were stupid specific about it lol.

Also started prepping my ls2 block for it. Put the main studs in and torqued em and filled it 100%. Hoping it holds up to 4 second power for a while

Made the trip over to the fab shop and helped em out today. Made alot of progress today. Will be picking it up Saturday! Super stoked to get it back and finished up

Redid the coolant lines to the heads. Looks way better.will still lose the stainless line to get it all matching.

Went and picked the car up, threw it on the scales. Was hoping for a little more loss but it is what it is. Still needs the driveshaft, battery, coolant, and wiring to he exact so itll be sub 3k
