I’ve had hesitation right around 2400 rpm since the car was turbocharged, we haven’t been able to tune it out either… after researching for hours I finally think I’ve got a solution for my car, I need to add another OEM damper to the passenger side fuel rail. I think it’ll cost around $160 to get everything put together, I’ll post up the part list & sources I’ve found if you’re interested (don’t have them at work…)…
I feel the hesitation at 2400 when I’m in 1st gear trying to cruise in a parking lot and in higher gears when I’m trying cruise at a steady speed.

Looks great. Glad that you can finally drive it and not have to worry about shops being gay. I'm not a fan of those seats, I think some racing seats would really set it off because the color of those seats just kind of clashes with the rest of the car. Just my 2 cents. Other than that, great stuff.

seat color matches the gauges and goes with the illumination perfectly. I had them made when the car was still silver tho.. if you saw it in person, i guarantee youd change your mind in a flash tho.. theyre one of the most money parts of the car honestly. 
Race seats are far too small and are also uncomfortable.. im a large man lol.
Willeh.. thx man..
and yeah i get to 'enjoy it' here n there but it still needs some work done.. larger fans, a third damper on the fuel rail.. and i have to get some more air to the radiator somehow.
hoping that removing the crash bar and cutting out the underside of the veilside nose/beak will help... as of now i only have a 10x30 square for air to come in.
Cars at my friends shop right now getting the 240a alternator and underdrive pully installed, as well as bigger spacers in the rear and new o2 sensors.. hope it helps smooth out the driving.

Car looks ridiculous, well done sir.
Did the turbo blanket end up making a difference? It's too bad you had to put one on cause it doesn't really flow well with the rest of your engine bay. Have you thought about tucking any wires under there?
Also, is that an HKS oil cap? Where did you get it? That's the money part on the car imo
