yeah man it just wasn't my day. i mean, i did get a lot accomplished over all, just not the one thing that i really wanted to happen the most. but, i guess it just wasn't my day for a tune, whatever the reason may be.

yeah man i'm hoping everything works out this weekend. probably won't be any tuning pulls since we are street tuning, but there will definitely be videos after it's tuned!

the exterior is pretty much done. i'll probably have the lip and front bumper repainted cause they're beat to ****. just need some wheels and i'll be set.

majority of the parts are for the engine

well guys, i FINALLY got my car tuned last night. no numbers, just a street tune. low boost is 11psi and high boost is 16-17psi. power band is nice n smooth. on high boost it just starts to roll the tires off at the top of second gear. now it's time to start stock piling parts for the next go 'round lol. i'm hoping that over winter i can upgrade my entire turbo setup and possibly build the head as well n then hit the dyno and shoot for 400+. i'll try to get some video of a pull here at some point

for driving it on the street ETA isnt looking so good. I still need to do the brake tuck and some undercarriage/suspension work. As far as starting it.... all i really need are some fuel lines/oil lines/gaskets ect. but i might go ahead and tuck my engine harness so that could take time, just a countdown i guess. no rush i guess ha
