^Can't....stock one is long gone, the original SSP one used parts from the stock one, so I threw out the stock one :)

Danny told me today that they got the Magnus one in on Friday...apparently it sucked the big one getting it in and they had to take it out and flip it around after they realized you can install it two different ways, lol.
Regardless, I shouldn't have to worry about that ever again which makes me happy.
So I am really really hoping today they can finish up all the ECM brackets and wiring and.......start it up!

Crapski!
I totally forgot, lol. Well then I would assume that they finished buttoning it up...I hope :) Danny on Friday said the ECU bracket and ECU were all they needed to put back together (aside from the CMC which they finished Friday).
Maybe tomorrow I will get to see an idle vid, I wanna see if my new cams finally get it an Uber lope!

Ugh, just got back from DB a few mins ago. Was there since like 5, lol.
Meanwhile in the back, mine hadn't started yet and I was pathetically trying to help them troubleshoot a wiring issue. Danny figured it out eventually after a light bulb turned on, lol. Apparently Mitsu likes to use the same connector for the starter solenoid as it does for the AC...so when we were trying to crank the car we were actually trying to turn the ac on, lol.
Regardless, tomorrow morning they are starting the car and will do some break in. If there are no leaks I should still be able to pick the car up from DB after work. (praying)
Apparently they were troubleshooting these electrical problem for hours over the last two days, gremlins suck!

Good luck, I hope that does it. Those guys work some epic hours.

Indeed. I still can't believe they were throwing the s2000 on the dyno after I left at midnight. I know danny had a install at 9am today too, so I have to imagine he is running on fumes.

Cool night time air is worth more whp to a S2k than an exhaust, that's why :D

I'm guessing it was Charles' S2k since they've had it for some time now... That car's ridiculous no matter what the IATs are.
