good luck, pressure test those intercooler pipes to check for leaks. DO NOT rely on sound of hissing air to tell you where the leaks are check with a spray bottle filled with soapy water. ---

> [@Phoenix 305](#): > > Jesus hurry up already. > > I call Offical Camera Man. 🙂 but you don’t have a video camera do you? actually the funniest part of this to me is that the first person to get the honor to floor this beast is going to be mike at innovative, i’m sure as hell not going to take a chance on a basemap. we got all of the engine to turbo exhaust pipes done today with the exeption of 1 set of 2" flanges we need to make. the “down pipe” (its more sideways than down) is complete and behind the transmission. the turbo to intercooler is complete. inter cooler to TB is complete up to teh fender and this is because i’m waiting on my tiny maf to come in form a gentalman out west. the filter side of the turbo has not been started yet but it should only take 5-7 hours I think. still need to swap oil pans with the modified one for the oil drain. and need to complete cooling lines. oil lines 3 hours cooling lines 2 hours. intake install 25 min we decided to take a break and check for fuel leaks and aparently there is some sort of electrical problem my interior is not getting enough power to power everything up nor is the FP getting enough power. we hooked up the pump directly to teh battery and the pump is good. so I will install the intake tomorrow and see if i’m forgetting something. and yes i grounded the main ground that goes to the back of the intake. hopefully i can fire this thing up on sunday!!! ---
