Scheduled to get a tune this saturday as long as everything goes to plan. I'll post some numbers and videos hopefully saturday

couple pics. Had to push back the tune until this saturday due to weather. hopefully it makes good power. on the left side of the bumper you can see the oil cooler. I may cut more of the bumper out of the way if the temps are high. Added AEM dry flow filters to get rid of the mushrooms of death! Bit of a size difference...

Here are a few pics from today. Gonna work on getting a few videos up. Nik at soho did an unbelievable job with the tune. They are legit and def. know what they are doing. My plugs were not gaped properly so I could have made a bit more power but we ended up making 420 hp 400 tq @ 8 psi. It was a huge relief to finally see it run after these months of work and headache. My oil cooler is doing great, temp never went above 198 and was mostly hovering around 185 on the drive home. I'll post up the dyno curve later, I forgot it. I have never driven a turbo car before so I am in awe...the power is really fun and those open dumps are nasty! Thanks to everyone who helped me along the way..Cux, especially Charles at CJM, I cant thank you enough for all the knowledge.
