Finishing a lot of the little things. Hoping to make some hits on the street next week(somewhere in bfe)
Finished all my wiring. Verified that my boost control solenoids work. Going to wait until daylight to test transbrake and bump box while it's on the lift. If those are good, I'll put the dash in for the last time along with the front lexan. Swept it out, put my kirkey seat covers on, replaced the broken and missing rocker panel/fender clips and bolts from the shop that did the cage/turbo setup. Ended up cutting the rear diffuser straight across since I don't have exhaust back there anymore and it uncovers the rear end. Ran the fuel cell vent. Going to see if I can get the c02 bottle filled today. Still need to figure out if putting 12v to the window motor will allow me to roll it up. If not, it's looking like lexan windows and possibly fiberglass doors at this point. Ordered the m&m shifter from Carter motorsports along with another 3 port mac valve to air shift it. Hopefully that shows up this week. Thanks everyone that followed the build to this point. It's been a long 2 and a half years

Thank you!
Tested all my wiring while it was on the lift. Verified the transbrake and bump box works. Got my co2 bottle filled as well today. Going to try to get her outside to give it a much needed bath and pics of course lol Now it's just waiting on the shifter and verifying the programmed loop for the shift solenoid works. Then street hits!

Got the shifter today. Got it put in. Smoothest shifter I've ever had. The solenoid for the air shift tested bad, ordered a new one. I'll throw that on this week. Got a walbro 255 to put in by the cell to help push the fuel up.
Ordered the new battery disconnect since this one has power through it at all times. Also been working on setting up the alternator settings in the gold box so I don't have to change the regulator. Hoping to make it to the track next Friday still

So I threw the 255 in, still need to wire it. Fixed some brake fittings that were leaking, need a second person to bleed them. The rest is all wiring.
New mac valve showed up for the air shifter. That one tested okay. Battery disconnect, steady state relay for the fuel pump(sucks having all ground triggers from the ecm), and finally some more black dzus fasteners! Threw in a pic of the m&m shift linkage. That had me all messed up trying to figure out how that went

Thanks for the update!
Researching myself on shifter info and wondering why did you chose CO2 over Electric shift?

I went with the co2 because I had it in the car already for boost control. Not a lot out there for electric shifters for a 3 speed

Finally got around to fixing the driver side window. Unfortunately I couldn't get it to go up jumping wires so I ended up pinning it up using some of the original track work
Bit the bullet and scheduled a full dyno tune at crucial performance in Columbus Ohio next Thursday. Eric has tuned the car on the past several times and I definitely trust him.

Got some last minute wiring done. Everything is perfect. Driver side door worked out so well I did the same to passenger side. About 60lbs shed. Got a pair of parachute cable release levers to fab into door handles.
Here's a video testing inputs/outputs in ms3. https://youtu.be/zTTbtja1qgc

Got the new door handles mounted. Using some heim joints I cut the threads off. They serve their purpose.
Dropped off some leftover stickers I have on the car to have some no time(N/T) stickers made. Thinking I'll keep some of the faster times to myself. Have everything else done. Picked up a second set of spare plugs to go with the car Thursday. Next update will be dyno numbers as long as I don't get a call saying I've got 6 rods hanging out of the block. Turned the co2 on and the diaphram for the wastegate was blowing air past it, even shop air turned to 20lbs. Bit the bullet and ordered a pte pro series co2 gate. Hopefully it fits in its place but after doing my research I'm confident it will
