Turbo weekend is finally here!
I finally got all my parts to start my single setup, FMIC, water injection, and suspension. I want to thank everyone on the list for their input...and when I get the last of my parts in (this week I hope) you'll be sure to see me at the next meet.

Thanks for the invite. I hope to finish it soon. My turbo weekend turned into turbo month since:
1. Every electrical connector snapped in my hands during removal. Plus it's crispy wires are baked (was a florida car) So that starts my terminated engine wiring harness project.
2. My wastegate isn't dumped back into the downpipe so I've picked up some stainless tube to weld that in.
3. My turbine housing touches my ac purge lines so I need to make new ones and reroute them.
4. Got to make custom intercooler tubing since the fluidyne radiator is in the way.
5. My water/methanol injection control box is on back order
6. Extrudehone F*ed up my lower intake manifold so I've been considering making my own unless I can fine one quickly
7. Plus all the regular custom fab stuff that goes along with these cars.
Ya know...just a few little things

It's our own system (Tri-Power Performance that is) in which we've borrowered components from the carrol superchargering company's gaseous intercooler kit that's now on the market. Currently it's a prototype setup but may be sold as a complete system one day-depends on how well it works vs. cost/interest. Car should be done in a couple of weeks I'll keep it posted.
