Well got some gsr leather fronts yesterday, I'd say they're 8.5/10. I'm having a shop look thrm over and give me a price to recoat them and remove the small scuffs, and possibly dying the rears black. They're comfy as shit.
My base map should be here today, and my special ordered coupler comes tomorrow. I'm spending the day running and wiring the boost and oil gauge and getting odds and ends finished up.
Tune possibly in the next week or so if she starts and runs fine.
She has all her fluids changed too.
So close! So anxious!

Very productive today. Will get pics up tomorrow when I have light.
Painted the A pillars black (interior paint.. no rice) so the black pillar blends in better.
Ran the push lines to the boost gauge and hard line to the oil gauge.
Got my base map in the mail and installed, thanks to John at JK Tuning in Carlise, PA.
While digging under my dash, I discovered a near full Viper Alarm system. Tilt sensor, Etc. I knew it HAD one, because the receiver is still on y windshield but I always figured it was left over. I'm a speaker and key-fob short of a full alarm.. kinda happy about that

I sure hope it works still. That's a pretty good find, as long as it's wired properly and isn't a hackjob.

Surprisingly its not hacked at all. Just need a siren installed and find a key fob for it. It'll protect my new GSR leathers.
Only problem is that the key fob's are 200 on the main viper site. So i gotta hunt for one thats in my price range lol.

She's alive!!
Runs and idles smooth, no leaks, gauges all work. Just need this last U bend so I can clamp my charge piping done.
Such a sweet relief.
Tune is set for next Friday. I'll keep you guys posted.

I have a fine mesh screen filter on it, and I'm being gentle just around town and to work.
Need new hardware for the bumper so I'm doing the "Racecar" look for a day.
Spool is extremely fast, 5-10psi takes but a small push of the throttle.

So I was driving tonight, doing 30mph (no lie), and last minute see this black object in the road. By the time i do, I run it over and hear clanking and dragging. Pulled over already pissed, because we have asshole who throw this shit in the road on purpose, I checked my exhaust and sure enough.. it broke the hanger and my flex pipe. It also torqued the turbo at the manifold. The hanger is back together, shits torqued, but need to have a new flex pipe installed. It's getting done this week. No sweat.
