enough said.

everything that could go wrong did. every bolt that could strip, did. fuck the motor mounts.

i'll get it running soon enough....as soon as I'm not scared to go into my garage again.

Well, I'm lazy and still haven't started the car yet :huh:

Today I finished work underneath the car, hooked up the exhaust, external gate, driveshaft, tranny mount/brace, filled the transmission, etc.

I decided I don't want to work on it any more today, and I leave tomorrow to go sailing for a bit over a week. Once I get back, here is what's left to do:

-oil change
-install radiator, fan, shroud
-replace coolant lines between heater core and back of block/intake manifold
-intercooler piping
-fire it up

then:
-install AEM and sensors
-tune tune tune :)
