just bought an FD alt dual belt pully from jp2la, about to put the new ecu in, hopefully this resolves my charging issues and cold start issues. if not, then i have a spare set of injectors to send out to get rebuilt and try those, also have another set of ignition coils going on.
all this work, just to last til i throw the RE in

installed the fd alt with the pully, starting to have flooding issues, i think the injectors off the other s5 n/a engine are going to get rebuilt and slapped in, hopefully it will fix that issue.
been having misc electrical issues though....

got some work done last night. decided to finally put in this brand new carpet i got a few years back.....i forgot how much work it is. got the dash out without breaking anything, i have a few pieces to replace, to make this car perfect will cost me another 2g round abouts, but its worth it to me, i want the cleanest vert in the bay area.
anyways, heres the pics. tried to take pics last night, but not enough light in my garage, i think i need to remedy that





need to order some plastic, floor mats, and a few other things
