I called Reggie today because I was missing my BOV horn I forgot to include the letter in the ecu box stating I needed it shipped back with the flash. I called him but I never got a call back, I guess he was busy. Just curious if you knew if they were operational this week or not.

Second pic is the fuel pump assembly with the 2 3/8" holes you need to drill
Third pic is the fuel regulator orifice after being drilled out to 7/64"
All these steps were simple....
Some more pics-
Close up of lower plenum, an under hood shot with no plenums on before taking fuel rails out, and a shot of the stock injectors (black) and TN injectors before moving the bottom o-rings around and adding the injector spacer to the top of the TN injectors....

Alberto, good luck with the rest of the install. there are few PITAs left but in the end it will all be worth it!!
+1 on the comments about Reggie and MIA. During my install, MIA helped me and my friend Dan out with some questions we had. also, I had a v-band clamp that i apparently over-torqued (snapped @15 minutes after the fact) and Reggie sent one out to me right away, no questions asked. between MIA, Reggie and Dan my install was possible with the least amount of head aches!! after working out some quirks (my fault) i drove my Z for @900 miles before getting deployed with no issues.

Be sure to:
*Make sure to use teflon paste instead of tape.
*Use metal zip ties to secure the heat wrap. i purchased mine at www.summitracing.com.com
*Make sure all the clamps over the sillicone couplers coincide with the grooves.
*Be sure to put thread lock on the O2 sensor plugs.
