My garage spot is in greenfield. Hopefully I'll see this driving around soon!

Taking stuff apart is fun but putting it back... That's another story! The subframe swap is adding unplanned time to the install. I didn't want to cut my stock subframe and mounts so luckily the seller was able to provide modified ones with the kit. No instructions on how to swap them however so figuring that out took an hour or so. Broke my driver side hood latch cable unfortunately(the weak plastic ferrel where it catches the latch) so had to order that. Won't arrive till Tuesday and that'll push everything back. I believe I just have to keep headlights loose but can still move forward with the other stuff. Keeping fingers crossed.

Home stretch! Flash tool reading ECU right now and blower was fitted late last night. I can almost see the finish line
This is going to be crazy, what are the target numbers?
-
Lol @ Snap. I'm hoping to be done by tomorrow :-X Just waiting on supercharger oil to be delivered and the tune file to be emailed back to me.
Target numbers are around 650 hp/450 tq. Previous owner had dynoed like 520 at the wheels but he didn't have any other mods so I'm hopeful!

Nothing peeves me off like realizing there's a missing part right at the very end. Last night was just one issue after another. There's an adapter and vacuum like that goes from the manifold oil drain to the driver side crankshaft breather(it's missing argh!) Then the air filter is damaged so need to overnight the parts. Soooo close I can lick the finishing line. Guess I'll button the rest up and do an oil change while I wait for parts. Gonna send in a sample to black stone labs. I might still make the picnic this Saturday!

You know what?
This will decimate all after you put about fifteen grand in it or more.
And if we have to....
....overnight parts from Japan.
Look forward to seeing/hearing your car in person someday.
