Thats badass! And that wheel tire combo is :yum:

Looking Great! Stay safe over there.

Thanks!

So I spoke with PowerFab today. We're still waiting on the SPL Rear Camber Arms. Once they arrive they're going to start installing everything. Than I will get daily updates with pictures. :) The HRE wheels are going to remain off until everything is completed to avoid a mishap. Brought up a good point that we wouldn't want a tool to be accidentally dropped on them.

On a personal note... I'm hoping an Act of God comes through and approves me for a Visa so I can be home May 3rd. If not I'm going to wish for May 26th. If not I'm going to lose my mind! LOL!!! Really hoping for May 3rd as we're hoping thats when the dynoing will begin.

Picked up this little guy so I don't have to keep turning off my VDC every time I get into the car.

I knew in the back of my mind my car wouldn't be ready but I kept denying it.... Till this morning. God I hope I'll be able to spend more than one day with it like the last time I did a big build.

Well talked to PowerFab again. Sounds like they have a plan to start today/tomorrow. Still waiting on covers from paint. Hopefully hear something today.

Another note I fly out in the morning (night CST). Be home Friday afternoon.

:tiphat:Congrats brah, what's gonna be the first thing you do? Well besides that, I know what the first thing I would do and it would involve my wife and probably a closet or bathroom in the airport:bowrofl:

Thanks! First thing... Shower! LOL When you travel for 36hrs you need one. LOL

Great news Robert!

I look forward to finally meeting you. Maybe at the ZCoH meeting on Tuesday?

Have a safe trip home.

I don't know if it's my laptop but I don't see any pics?

Work for me.

Got word via PowerFab engine and diff are in. Fuel system is being finished. Will go by tomorrow for more pic/info.

Was told I should be picking it up sometime tomorrow afternoon for break-in driving.

Wow looks good aaaaand expensive! Congrats after break in how much boost are you gonna push?

Really haven't discussed it too much. Thinking 16-18psi on pump as that is perfect for the GT28s. More and you start to produce more heat than beneficial gains.

18psi is definitely the sweet spot for the 2860, this is gonna be sweeeeeeet :tup:

Thanks! I'm excited for it!

A lot of the wiring has been completed. Oil and water/coolant added. Exhaust mounted and tips fixed. HalTech is in. Left the shop with the battery charger on it and hopefully first start up tomorrow morning.

awesome :)

It's tomorrow morning, where is the update?! :icon17:

The car started. Having some issues with the Cosworth sealing and getting vacuum leaks. Ordered new gaskets and having them overnighted. Yeap... Overnighting gaskets. LOL!

Latest pics:

Compressed some. Still needs to come completely off the lift and new alignment.

CJM Fuel rails and painted valve covers.

Change the location of the JWT intake filter. This will help the hood close properly. Also have the LightWerkz '06 headlight in.

Still needs an alignment but on the ground.

Car is not completed but picked it up late Saturday night. Was able to drive it on a very conservative tune. Pulls pretty good and can't wait for final results. I'm dropping it back off to PowerFab tomorrow morning before depart back to Iraq. Hopefully I'll be home in Oct for the Texas Mile. Below are some pics...
