Build update 10/19/15.

Got a lot of the smaller details completed this weekend.

-Bolted in the Rad shroud.

-Made brackets for my removable core support. (Sorry no pic :/)

-After I installed the brackets, I was able to mount the FMIC and work on the piping. This is when things started to slow down at least on the drive side.

Mocking up the piping before secure the T-bolts.


Passenger side FMIC done


Started working on the driver side. This side took the longest to setup. Because I needed to open up the hole in the chassis more and more to make everything fit correctly. The way they were ran before caused a lot of pull and rubbing all over the front part of the body. It was pretty obvious after removing all the old couplers as there were tears and holes in them. I decided to use a 8" coupler to help reduces some of those issues. I think it came out pretty good.




-Unfortunately I need a new AEM sensor. The head on this one is completely rounded off and the threads seem seized.


-Mounted my chase bays coolant catch can finally.


-Got all my vacuum fittings sorted out and installed.


And this is how she sits now, about 80% complete.
