Hopefully this 60mm Wastegate will keep boost under control.

Also got my 6 injector Rywire mil spec harness, I had David at RyWire add 2 additional secondary injectors and a TPS quick disconnect to be ble to change between the Cosmo and Ford 3 wire TPS, I want to thank Aaron at FFE for the harness and David at Rywire for the extra work to the harness.

Had some free time so I mounted the bosch pumps to the CJ Motorsports pump hanger, plus went by CLR to see the progress on my parts.

Now the only issue with the 626 antenna is that the thread for the mast is to deep into the flange and I was going to use the S2000 shorty antenna but it won't reach the thread for attachment.

The Celica one does work with the S2000 antenna, so I might modified it.
Thanks, damn I had one from a Celica couple years go that I wanted to use on my MX-6, it didn't fit so I threw it away, now I wish I didn't.

Semi work was done by Carlos Lopez of CLR Motorsports, cant say what it cost me, but usually between 400-600.
