Adjusted the suspension a little today. Balanced out the rear since one side was about a quarter inch higher than the other, and lowered the front about a half inch to kill the wheel gap.

Also, got a radio installed yesterday. It's nice to have tunes again while I'm driving!

Probably gonna get the manifold and dump pipe for the turbo setup sometime soon, then all I'll need is the oil lines, and the coolant lines to get it installed, then still have to make a decision on what I want to use to tune it.

Very cool. I can't wait to see how she turns out! I remember you mentioned you might use Nistune. Any idea of how much or user friendly it is?

Yes, that is a bubble in the sidewall. I hit a chunk of something just before I took them off the DSM last fall. It hasn't grown at all, and doesn't cause any vibrations or anything, so I'm gonna let it go for now. If it starts getting worse I'll change it out.

For tuning options, I'm pretty much down to Nistune, or Megasquirt. I've got a spare 5 speed ecu I could send in to get the Nistune chip installed, or whatever they need to do to it. From what I understand, it's reasonably easy to work with, and should support my goals pretty well. For Megasquirt I would need to build an ECU, and I would have no idea where to start for that, or what sensors I would need to make it work.

What about jimwolf ecu and z32 maf? My good friend loved that setup on his KA-T. Stock shortblock made 377rwhp at 15psi with a Holset H1C, 92 octane
