    My attention has been on my bathroom remodel but that will be wrapped up next week. I'll be port matching the exhaust ports, turbo flange and turbo then taking it back to the machine shop.

                Got the exhaust side of the head ported out a ton.

                Stock width:

                The final width was 49mm.  I still had a little of work to do on this one.

                In a couple of days I'll get the head back and go from there.  I'll be ordering Megasquirt 3 soon and see how all that stuff works...here goes nothing!  Snap is helping me out a lot with the MS3x transition.

                                  I want to stay on pump gas.  I do have some bits for meth injection but haven't fully pulled the trigger on it.  I also have a rally road billet fuel rail that is collecting dust in the garage too. 

                                  I also got a brand new OEM S54 oil filter housing.  Thinking of running the VAC A/N fitting bolt on and running an oil cooler.  Seemed to be the cheapest option with my limited research.

                                    I can help with ms3 where needed, though I still think you should make a harness instead of using the old one ;) 
                                    How much did the new housing run ya if you don't mind sharing?
                                    I assume you got ms3x ?
                                    Yay for more tuning goodness!

                                      $300 for the housing if i remember correctly with my discount.

                                      I did get MS3x.

                                      I'll try to give my harness a whirl and go from there.  I'm just thinking that wire is wire and if it works it works

                                        Not a bad price at all on the housing! 
                                        I can help with the harness, feel free to bother me with questions if you have them!

                                          Don't tempt me with that!  Snap's phone is going through batteries like I go through head gaskets at the moment.
