That's gonna be fun.
didnt do too much today, still really cold out. I got all the water hoses connected, I painted my intercooler and upper I/C pipe. I changed some of the wiring around to make it cleaner, I also flat out re-wired parts of the power harness to make it simpler, I installed all the engine sensors, installed the standalone and test fit all the intercooler piping. I made some spacers for the intercooler, now it should fit with the JDM bumper, hopefully. Its gonna be cold for a few days, im not gonna start it until it gets warmer, its supposed to warm up wednesday or thursday, just 2 new pics for now...

wow, that valve cover is gorgeous!!!!!
Where did you put the other half of the battery? That shit is tiny...Did you need a mini battery or just put it in because it's so damn cute?
the progress looks great.

I actually needed the battery, my upper intercooler pipe wont fit with a full size battery, I didnt want to relocate it to the trunk because then you need a special kill switch for the track, I didnt wanna deal with the hassle to I went with the mini battery.
Does that mini battery have the power enough to run the car properly?

Yeah, its got 680 cranking amps, It doesnt work soo good in the cold but, I dont plan on using my car much in the cold, so it wont be an issue.
cant wait to see this car done,,great work man
Thats some amazing work.
OK so these pics were from yesterday, I ran all the vacuum lines, installed the plug wires, intake pipe, went over all the connections and checked everything, tightened down all the hardware and everthing under the hood with the exception of the alternator belt is done. Today I plan on installing the alternator belt, the axles, filling up all the fluids and starting it up. My laptop is giving me hell and it wasnt connecting to the standalone correctly, so im workin on it .....

I see that you have in your sig 369 WHP on 93 octane pump gas. Do you plan to go over that with the new build of the EVO motor?
Yes, im hoping to break 500whp on pump gas, 30psi, with meth injectionQuote:

Ok so I just finished the car. Its finally done. Its dark outside and its best if I start it up tomorrow. I want to be able to see under the car once I start it in case I get any small oil or coolant leaks, so its better if its daylight. Tomorrow I will start it up and take pics and video.
