yea man in about three weeks it will be going up to my mates house who is a aircraft engineer and local/national rotary engine... lets just say know it all/god and he is basically building the exhaust and getting the haltech in and everything else to get it running for a tune i realy can not wait lol

update
the misis was in rarotonga for a week so i fluffed around in the garage and made a few simple brackets and started to sticker bomb my dash lol
here are some quick pics of what i got up to

the start of my sticker bomb dash.... dont judge me


bracket i made out of alloy to get the itb's sitting where they should be and keep it from floundering around while engine is running etc


bracket i made out of alloy for my new ls7 coils i got off ''aerosev'' (guy who is doing all the work to get it going)
