Thank goodness for buying a used long block to build off of or this would have sucked. I have DSS Pro axles to install and a MA Diff cooler to install. Plenty to keep me busy.

Good attitude and the only one to have with this kind of build.

Well, I gotta install some A/C in my garage. It's freaking hot/humid here. That time of the year and I don't feel like doing squat outside.

I had the dreaded dead pedal on the way home again today. I had only 1/4 throttle. Shut it off and restart, same thing. I wiggled the drivers side throttle body wires. Fixed. I either have a bad connection, broke harness, or a cold solder joint inside the throttle body. Never kicked out a code. I would love to have had a Consult II/III to look at it so I could see exactly what was going on. I hope I get to see these type parameters with Ecutek.

Hmmmm wonder what's going on.

Throttle plate is not opening is what is going on. It was too hot to mess with on the side of the road. I look at it this weekend. I have read of some issues with 2013 TPS's. No worries, I will get it fixed.

One more month before I take the car to MA. I am getting excited to see how Daelen and I did picking the parts for the build. Maybe he can come back to MA when I pick up the car just to see for himself how we did. For anyone who wants to do this, it is a long process. Be ready for the hurry up and wait. It is brutal.

Is Daelen still with MAM? Sounds like he might have left. :confused: I know MAM wasn't at ZDayZ this year. :(

His wife is in the military. They moved back home due to her transitioning to the active National Guard is my understanding. Life sometimes throws you a curve and you just roll with the flow. Been there done that. When I got out of the Air Force the transition was tough. I do miss him but Brian and John are taking great care of me. I miss calling him up and shooting the breeze. He made the waiting a little more bearable. I have never meet him. Maybe one day I will.

I met him at ZDayZ last year. Great guy. Talked to him a lot. We beat idea's off of each other. Did a lot of e-mails on the diff cooler.

I have not met him but I know he is doing some Formula Drift stuff. I see him with Chris Forsberg every now and then.

This is a great video on how to build a quality bottom end for forced induction.

Hey, I got a diff cooler for free, and a good discount on my OS Giken diff and other parts. :tup:

Z speed undertray installed. It is getting real close to time to take the car up to Maryland.
