The mold really turned a corner for me. The face is clearly visible in the mold. Most everything has been sanded down with 320 grit which seems to be the turning spot to find imperfections.

All the soft spots are gone and pin holes filled. I need to cut the great wall located on the back side of the mold, I'm glad it's snowing now because it needs to be cut outside. On the face there were some low spots on the corners but they have been raised up with a bit of bondo, it wasn't terrible but it stuck out when sanding to a higher grit.

My confidence level has gone up with this mold. I still have some left over trauma from attempting the hood mold. *shudders*

Black Friday specials hit for Motion Raceworks so I went ahead and ordered the Twin Turbo CO2 kit. This will allow me to put dome pressure on the waste gates to make more boost with out having to change the springs in my waste gates. I already had the MAC valves ready on the car for the purchase so installation should be pretty easy.

Shot out to Richard C for getting me a link to a mount that will work for mounting the CO2 (before I put a cage in my car)
