Update:
We are waiting for the intake piping to come back from PolyDyn. Once the piping comes back the pumpkin will be swapped out and tuning will be done. PowerFab is going to make a coolant overflow tank since a factory one will not work with a twin intake setup. Also the windsheild washer resevoir will have to be replaced/relocated as well since the JWT one does not work with doing a twin intake setup. Lastly, the gauges are almost done with the new wideband gauge.

Car was back on the dyno and having lean issues on the right bank. PowerFab checked the timing and it looks like it jumped a tooth. The primary tensioner and oil passage ways in the covers were all clean but the tensioner itself felt exceedingly spongy. So they are putting a new one in and re-timing the motor tomorrow.

Really didn't get to "enjoy" it. Can't wait to we figure out the fuel issue. After driving it I think the bucking is due to a bad TPS. I also think the fuel pump is getting heat-soaked and "might" be the reason it falls flat after a couple pulls and above 10psi.
