Pretuned is just so I can take the car home. After that, we are taking the car to get dyno'd and fine tuned.
Right now the car is done and running. They are finishing up my boost gauge and cleaning up the wiring in the interior.
I'll have some new pics today

I wont go past 7.5lbs for now. Once the winter rolls around I plan on having the motor fully built. I still want to do more suspension work, rear axles and an LSD.

Smart man. Dude running it off the vacuum pressure is enough for cruising, even that will set u back some. 7.5 is more than enough. I actually turn my setup down to 6.5 when cruising through the city. Glad to see your so close to taking it home.

I picked up the car yesterday at the end of the day. I spent 4 hours cleaning it when I got it home!! After that I went out for a spin. I just can't whipe the smile off my face. I'm really impressed with the overall performance. Having had a worked WRX and now having the same type of HP, but with a rear wheel drive car thats sexy! All I can say is WOW! Now its time to save my pennies so I can build the motor during the winter time.
Here's a couple of pics..

I was just joking with you as you had all those issues with the dent in the first one you received. I think keeping the grill on looks nice too, I did the same with mine and it has more of a sleeper look too. Any videos?
