Well the JMF catch can and SMIM should be on their way shortly.

Also just picked up a Used Laptop (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSAA:US:11&Item=300222619828) for Link. I had been using a real old Sony thing that got the job done, but this one should be a little bit nicer.

Went to install the fuel feed today, and was taking pictures to make a little write up article for anyone else looking to do this. I quickly found out the adapter fitting that screws into the OEM fuel filter is the wrong thread pitch. I edited my prior post with the part numbers in case anyone else was looking to do this. Originally I thought the banjo bolt thread was 12mm x 1.5, but it is actually 12mm x 1.25mm. Just putting that out there for anyone else.

Yesterday
-Installed the Dual 255 pump setup yesterday. Tested the fuel system for leaks and so far so good.
-Attempted to install new fuel feed line but found I had a wrong fitting so the stock one is back on for the time being.


Today
-Got the oil drain for the turbo fixed up as it was kind of rigged earlier causing a leak.
-Put the EGT probe into the manifold.
-Primed the whole system with oil about 10 times just to be safe. No visual leaks as of yet.
-Put the front bumper and lenses back on.

-Right now Saables Gobbles is charging up the battery a bit before I go and just crank her over and make sure she fires up. There's no exhaust so it'll be loud, and will probably idle like crap considering the O2 sensor is just laying in the engine bay because it has no exhaust to screw into yet. Exhaust should be started sometime this week hopefully.

Looking good, are those HIDs on the Saab? They look bright as hell!

Ignore the flames, exhaust should be going on sometime this week hopefully. I'm just glad she started up and actually started to idle semi decently.

And yes, the Saab has HID's. Maybe the Talon will someday too.

Pretty sure that is the harness I put in there. It's the same bulbs that the green dragon used.
