I wired in the last fuel pump this evening. I have spent the last 3 days with the help of a buddy, checking connections, wiring, grounds, lighting, have a few bugs to workout but its looking pretty good for the most part. Got the laptop and the aem goin, getting readings from almost all sensors, plx gauges hooked up and tested all but my pressure sensors, won't know till I have the car running (I might kill the spark and crank it on just the starter to verify oil pressure prior to starting. I did bump the starter to test if its working, and its good to go. Bought oil and coolant, so hopefully put that in and see if I can get it fired up tomorrow!

ITS ALIVE!!! We got it started today. took some messing with the throttle body/ tps sensor that needed some adjusting. Only let it run for about 5 seconds or so. I have an open 4inch downpipe so when it did fire up it was pretty loud... I'm gonna fab up the rest of the exhaust soon. I had good oil and fuel pressure. And no leaks which was probably the best news.
I'm gonna work on setting up the aem and start messing with stuff to figure out the high idle and find a stock tune to get things kinda normal. Basically have about a million things total to work on, but eventually it will be ready.

Some updates on the car.
Had an issue with the idle, couldn't get it to come down past about 1600. Found out it was the throttle body letting to much air by. Lesson learned... buy a quality throttle body.
I chased a wiring issue down for a couple weeks. Found my Cam sensor wire had resistance in it. So it would start fine when it was cold but as soon as the car warmed up it would just crank and crank and crank. So had to run some new wires. I can thank the lovely people who did my wire harness for that.
