I can't wait to hear about the smile on your face when u crank that think over! It feels good after big install like so, I've done it like four times recently!

Sure hope so. It's getting pretty close now.

Yeah, I have to tune it before it will start, but we'll see how the first start-up goes.

I was thinking, if you decide to paint the core, paint a stencil on the core that says "Intercooled" or something similar, that'll be sweet!

Thats a really cool thought. I might try something like that.

It runs! Cranked up on the first try after about 15 months of sitting. Going to work on some bugs now.

I was giggling like a little girl when it fired up!

Pics and vids later.

SWEET! cant wait for the videos and pics corey!!

First startup vid. (Crappy quality, cell phone)

The leak in the video is just spilled water from the IC reservoir. No worries

And some pics. Not anywhere near done yet, but just a glimpse.

Ordonez that's a great looking engine bay!

that engine bay =the sexh

have u driven it yet? how is it?

love those braided stainless fuel lines

Thanks guys. There are a few more things going to be done to the engine bay in the coming days. It should really set it off nicely.
Haven't driven it. The idle sucks on it due to the fact that I have a cam and 85mm MAF in there without a tune for them. Hopefully soon, though.
Thanks man! They were a PITA to get to seal, but now that they are, I really like the look of them.

wow, that bay is REALLY empty! haha

Any ideas? This thing runs like crap. Something is up with the MAF/MAP

Not a very useful scan, but yeah, I agree. MAF for sure and MAP looks low. Have to do some checking on those wires/connections.

Next time give us some idle then some light throttle. Add TPS%, IPW, and O2 on there, maybe IAC position too.
