Went in and re-did the manifold lines. The bottom ports were 1/2" ID so I used that as a balance tube and the brake booster line. This will keep the pressure equalized just incase the throttle bodies are not 100% exactly the same. Then the next step up is another T line for MAP, again I wanted the T because it can read the average of both sides of the manifold. After that there is a single line for the BOV on each side of the plenum.

I was smashing my hands in that tight space and doing hardware store runs for about 3-4hrs to complete that. Just offering some time perspective for that line installation.

For some reason... I didn't hook up the alt and starter wires. There has to be a reason why I didn't do it while on the hoist... or atleast I hope so. Getting the Z on the hoist is not fun. Push it out of its spot. Move some shop cars. push it into the hoist spot. Put a jack under the front to lift so I can get the arms under the car. All that prior to lifting the car in the air. I opt'ed to roll on the dirty floor of the shop

I have an order from MS3 coming today for new coil brackets and IGN1A connectors. The new brackets will lower the coil packs and the wiring is plug and play into the main ECU harness. It's the best aftermarket wiring kit on the market. I'm excited for it!
