Well, since I posted last, a lot has happened, I got my big turbo on, all leaks are fixed, I need a return oil line for the turbo, but need to tap/weld a bung on to the pan for that. So I have to wait a while, but at least I got the feed line worked out, much easier than I though it would be. Thanks mitsu for using pipe threads in all the right places! :)
Here it was a couple weeks ago:

Here's the stock guy with the 61.

And with the new turbo, manifold and tial 38 mounted. I have to get a new downpipe made up, but that will get done at the same time as the I/C pipes.

And a couple more:
Cleaned up the area here, removed the charcoal canister, remounted the PS reservoir, figured out some wires etc.

And this is good for me: finally got all sensors and wires for them lined up and mostly ready. I will be redoing all injector clips and wires in a while. I'll shorten up the excess and wrap it all in loom tubing.

Glad to see this come together. And when you blow the 2.6, you can swap in a 4g easy.

Yeah, that's the upside!
I'd like to keep the g54b as long as possible though.

It's fairly close. I am going to tidy up the wiring inside. I have to find the stock tach wire and connect the dsm wire to that. then one more on the inside, then I can mount the ecu and get the interior all cleaned up. That will be nice. That aem is huge compared to the stock ecu, so it's going to be hard to do it right.
Lets see, then it's I/C pipes, downpipe, and the oil drain tube for the turbo. For that I have to mod the oilpan, which is hard to do when it's in storage, so I'll have to get that done by the same guy doing my piping.
I am getting more than I expected for student loans this summer, so I will be using some of my "reserves" for the car, don't tell anyone though. I really want to be done by the cookout so I can get at least best conquest. ;)

Few updates: got the ecu mounted and in place, that was kinda hard, and I'm really close with the engine bay, there's hardly anything I can do right now without having stuff welded.

Thanks, btw, I'm actually not getting that extra student loan stuff I told you guys about. something about being in college for more than 4 years. Oh well, I'll get a job or something.
