At least you're actually doing this, most (like myself) have planned and planned, but either haven't had the time (such as myself lol) or have just given up. From when I was looking before, you should be able to get a tranny/trans kit from Transmissions for less than 2-3k.

I have most of the bugs figured out. It's tuned as much as I can get it with the stock narrowbands. Still have to get a wideband so I can tune WOT. For now I'm going to just make sure there is no KR in the WOT tuning I can do. If the weather hold out I'll be going to the track tonight and doing a few runs.

i am wondering how you made the down pypes did you have a muffler shop or did you find a place that made the crossover pype to the turbo? that is what i am wondering? other than that i am up to going to the places where you went to get your parts to see if they can make me a cross over pype as well as the turbo and the rest as well. it sounds great i hope you will be able to get it tweeked

I made the down pipe it was just a J bend I was able to make the bends work. The cross over is just the stock pipe that I attached the 4 bolt flange to. Its hard to explain, here are some pictures of the down pipe and cross over.

Setup is going to change in the next week or so. The MAF gets too hot from the downpipe even with it wrapped. I was getting 140*+ intake temps, I'll post more pictures of the new intake setup.

Still working on tuning WOT and trans. Just got back from the track, was laying down 14.8 constant with a best of 14.5 which was my first run. It face plants at 6k in second so I had to set it to shift at 5500 and 3rd gear just sucks. Being that I'm running at 120% duty cycle I think its not getting enough fuel and I've maxed the injectors out.

Just ordered a set of 52# injectors and a new walbro fuel pump. That should solve and fuel problem I have. lol
