Let's hear it for Gleaming Gilmania, For some reason this turbo came from the factory loose, turbonetics said it shouldn't have. Kev changed the postion and presto....back on track!!! I should have my ECU back tommorow and we just have to intall the intercooler, a couple more exhaust pieces oil pan, oil lines strut bar and misc. bull.
I will not jinx myself anymore than that, I tink I caused this snafu by betting Shannon we only had 5 more hours!!!

Welp...(as Juztin would say) we should have finished the install tonight. I got my ECU back already!!! Too bad the weather was sooo crappy. I know we will finish EARLY this weekend. If we try again Friday night, it will probably be done then....I hate Colorado winters...moving to AZ!!!
