About $23k including dual fueler, turbo and motor. About 75% is already paid off my 1 year no interest credit cards so Im not feeling totally pissed about it lol... goal was to do as much as I could to it that I could pay off in the year of the CC I got that was no interest for first 12 months.

Once that is paid off and I have a little cushion RPM Motorsports is going to be doing my twin setup - should be before Xmas.

Tomorrow is the day... Jason is coming up as soon as he wakes up from the Pull tonight.

Any other ideas?

Some fresh fuel to get you from your house to the gas station??
Power steering fluid
Brake fluid
Tranny fluid
Oil
Coolant

Sorry - I've never done this before, i'm living vicariously through your build :)
I'm just throwing stuff out there just in case :hug:

Theres where we ended for the day.

Its startable now. Probably wont do it til next weekend though.

The Intake mouthpiece that came with my turbo was too big to fit in the area it needed, so we chopped the end down to get it to fit correctly, still wont.

Looks like I need Henrys LBZ/LMM intake pipe to give the turbo mouthpiece more room to fit in there... fail.

other than that, things went really well. Everything is done basically except for the front cooling stack, 2nd battery tray, overflow, etc.

Then fill with fluids, check everything again, and pray.


Contemplating ordering a new Intercooler now that I am not rushed to get it running today.... probably will be necessary with the twins, not so much with the HTT.

Also gotta get a new hot side CAC pipe... I had forgotten how smal it is. Thats some bs.
