A lot of progress over long weekend.
-Finished fuel system, set regulator pressure and tested for leaks running pump through Ecutek App. Very handy tool.
- Rerouted cooling lines and mounted new overflow catch can.
- Installed supercharger in car and clearanced core support for intake tube to supercharger. That was a bitch with a fair amount of curse words thrown at it.
- Installed oiling system for supercharger.
- Test fit intercooler. Have to remove again today to add some washers on hardware.
- Remounted transmission cooler since supercharger oil cooler now occupies the trans cooler previous location.
- Changed out hoses on power steering cooler. Have to pick up some longer hoses for the PS cooler since it’s now on drivers side. Trans cooler now in previous ps cooler location on passenger side. Very tight fit behind intercooler.

Main items remaining.
-Install all the piping.
-Install one bracket and idler that should show up this week.
-Install belt.
-Install MAC solenoid and boost reference line to BOV.
-Fill/bleed radiator.
-Fill PS fluid.

Hoping to start up next weekend and get some initial drive time.

Overall Topgunz instructions are pretty through. They could expand a little more on the extent of clearancing needed at core support for intake pipe. That was the most time consuming part for me so far, followed by figuring out my transmission cooler mounting. Overall great instructions though.
