The turbo was never in my hands, as it would not make sense for me to sit on all these turbos. They ship direct from my supplier, and Precision screwed that up, and has delivered the correct compressor cover.

On the air filter...that is my mistake. I tried to get you the air filter much faster and paid the $80 over night shipping, but for whatever reason, my filter supplier dropped the ball and didn't ship it as I had instructed them to.

If there is anything I can help with please let me know...and I'll get on it.

You've done everything you said and I don't hold this on you. You were in it with me and I appreciate that. If it were me though I'd get my damned 80.00 back and both Treadstone and Precision would have to make amends for their shortcomings. It's still amateur day at the garage so be on the lookout for senseless emails until I'm done.

Thanks Sasha.

Started it up yesterday with open exhaust. Wow!!What a nasty sound. Funny thing is the VQ hiss is still there but you get to hear the true nature of it without mufflers and resonators. I tried a shortcut wiring up the wideband AFR and boost controller by daisychaining with the other gauges through the OEM harness and it did'nt work. So I have to do that part over. The only snag after startup was that as I was enjoying the fact it was alive , I had a massive fuel leak from the return line connection at the fuel pump. When I went over all the connections checking and rechecking I did'nt think to recheck the return line because I had already buttoned it up. I guess during the struggle of the install I was so defeated I closed it up because I was just happy it was over. The connector was finger tight. I have to work today and tommorow but the exhaust will be welded today and I'll rewire the AFR and Boost controller on Friday then button up the engine bay and put the bumper back on. Should be able to tune it next week.

My build is done. Shortly after the previous post I took a look at things and I had a slight leak from oil pressure sensor and the fuel pressure regulator. I also made a boo boo by not putting the valve seats of the wastegates ( It will still boost , but very lazy about it. Those were tightened up and taken care of. I spent almost two weeks in the Dominican Republic on vaction and came back this last Friday. I got to thinking about it and decided to have another shop completely go over my install with a fine tooth comb no holds barred. Afterwards I'm in for a tune. Once the numbers are in I'll post here and in the completed build thread.

Soooo, car was on the dyno and developed an exhaust leak followed by the dash lighting up like a christmas tree and complete electrical power loss. That's where it stands till it's on the lift to see.

Round 3 on the Dyno everything did'nt go 100% but that's fine. My boost controller soenoid took a crap and it spiked at 19psi on a pull so the tuner turned off the boost controller and tuned at wastegate with 7.5lb springs. Tuned on a mustang dyno and made 443.7 rwhp and 376.5 rwtq. I'll leave it be for now and get a new solenoid and check my plumbing on the boost controller.

Left to do: Switch out gauges **again**, coilovers and Wavetrac differential.
