Runs rough, but drives. My tune is definitely on the lean side, as Dave told me it would be. A few tweaks and it runs good enough to drive. New tranny and clutch feels great. The 6 puck is a little grabby but not really that bad. The stealth is in, and the FJO is removed. My exhaust leak has been isolated to where the mid-pipe meets the downpipe. I'm very glad the engine, downpipe, and wastegate are all leak free.
Leaving the OEM hood off as my Mazdaspeed hood should be here in a few days. Very stoked to get everything square and tuned.

Car is doing well. Exhaust leak fixed. Made a better mount for the water injection solenoid. Cleaned the bay, detailed the car and looked everything over again. Clutch is feeling much better. Not really seeing what the gripes are all about.
Tuning session on Aug 10th. I'll be monitoring the car, continuing to break in the clutch and tentatively waiting to put down some power.
Mazdaspeed hood will be here Wednesday. They made it twice due to a flaw in the finish. Ronnin is on point people, they don't mess around with quality.
Also bought a set of Ganador mirrors..... Paint is coming....
