It's all good, I got my rear suspension raised (discovered both rear bushings are cracked already, Stance blows), replaced my lug nuts and repaired studs (they were stripping with the aluminum lugs), I soldered and repaired gauges wiring harness (flickering when headlights were turned on), and then Hoss-05 helped me diagnose a problem with the power to my good box and then he soldered and repaired it ( thanks bro!).

houstonrx8er, I love having the Good Box in the faceplate. Thanks again!

Of course! I'm just glad we got it fixed. I really did not think i would be able to pull off the fix for a minute.

The wire broke inside the cable at the pin on the connector. The pin was tiny and the crimp type. I'm just glad we had some Iso-solider it would not have been fun to use an iron and wire type solider.

Nice! I want a turbo boost button. So you have the NOS button back on the shifter underneath the flip up plate? Its a good thing you put double welds on the floor boards.

Did DC get the Walbro installed in the pump assembly? It's easy enough to replace if we don't run into any issues getting the fuel pump retaining ring.

Yea you need to melt the little plastic gill looking things on the pop off valve. They are plastic it doesn't need to be deforms just melted enough so nothing can pass through. Also you need small hose clamps for the little fuel lines in the dohicky.

Not sure what ATR is 9k???

Mods;

Misimoto CAI
RP Super Cat
Turbo XS Catback

I have LS2 coils but one is bad and I have not had time to figure out which one it is so they are sitting in the garage. I am running the OEM for the time being.

Pretty boring...for now.
