A few small updates. Completed the wastegate plumbing and my MAC solenoid. Plumbing turned out good and solid. The pushloc hose will take the heat. My aluminum coolant lines for the turbo are shaped and awaiting the end fittings. The internal sleeves are on back-order from Earl's so I must wait for them.
I broke down and bought a few "flash" parts. I have been holding out on JDM Tails for a few years with no real need to switch over. Biding my time I found a set in excellent condition. I'll post pics soon, but as you can imagine, they look like any other set of JDM tails.
I also picked up a set of polished door sills. I imagine they will compliment my wheels and overall polished scheme very well. I'll post pics of those soon.

I have also decided to ditch the dual Stealth setup. I just love the pump, but its supply capability with a single pump at around 530whp is a little close for my comfort. I expect to make close to 500whp, and that doesn't leave much lead way. Furthermore, the Stealth flows so well that in dual form, it apparently causes starvation issues with the stock tank baffle. After a bit of research and considerations by you all, I am moving to the Walbro E85 pump. Flowing enough for 600whp, and in single form, I feel that this is what I should have went with initially. Nonetheless, I can sell my one new, and other low mileage Stealths with ease.

PLX Integration
As some of you may know, Andy from Adaptronic recently devised a way for the PLX oled gauges to read ECU metrics directly from the Adaptronic ECU. Using his "circuit board", I will have the gauge display my AFR, Boost, EGT1, and EGT2. The DM-100 is versatile and allows complete customization of the display. Color changing, wallpapers, and digital/analog toggle are a few neat features. Another great feature of the DM-100 is warning triggers set by a particular threshold. Coupled with Adaptive Tuner running on my pad, I feel I am covered in the gauge department. This setup is MUCH cleaner than my previous as I wanted to keep my interior simple, and functional. I have always liked the column gauge pod as it is directly below my line of sight when driving. No more looking around the cabin. I will post install pics this weekend.
Leave approved! Bring on the 3-day weekend!!
