Engine all put together and back in the car, all of this work was done by me at my house. The engine fired up on the first crank and now has 800 miles on it and going strong. I want to also thank Eric and Andy for all there help.

Good luck finding an autoexe intake, they're not cheap either when you do.

The greddy SMICs pop up here on the forums often so that'll be easy.

Looks good man. I think I am going to dig the outcome of this build. We have very similar tastes, I also think it was a smart move going oem apex seals.

Just tuned 15U's engine. Great build, thing drives so damn well. Low engine knock everywhere in the map, and the engine wants to keep going and going, some healthy ports on that engine.

We ran out of injectors doing his tune around 15-16PSI at the max end, and we bumped it back to 13PSI level at high altitiude and use about 80-85% duty cycle with a safe low 11's AFR.

Car looks great with the new wheels and paint!
