The car is going to be painted a different color then flat black for sure! I think the flat black in the bay and on the inside looks sweet!

Well this weekend i started to mess around with starting the car again and on Thursday night i still had nothing. I had great RPM signal with the new Full Function Engineering Trigger kit installed but still no sprak or fuel... So i messaed around with the tune a bit and still nothing. so i gave up and had some stuff to do on Friday so i neglected the car yet again. Saturday rolls around and im playing some Forza in bed and then it hit me... I was thinking about my cranking RPMs and how i had them set to 300RPM for start up. I grabbed my ECU and laptop and headed out to my car to try something out. I plug everything up and start cranking it over with my freshly charged battery and sure as **** the RPMs never reach 300. They hit about 190 max. So i lowered the cranking RPMs to 150 and boom she starts and immediately idles. SOOOO pumped! Ignore the mess of wires in the video, it was just to get the car to start for the first time.



So i ripped out the harnesses again so i can cut them to length and finally wire it for good. I need to mess with the tune for sure as you can tell it isnt running that great in the video. But i dont even care im just super stoked it finally started! Now for some sweet **** to happen and for me to hit a track day sometime soon! More updates to come deucesssss
