Unfortunately I wont make it. My gas tank leaks if I fill it over 3/4 tank, and I doubt Ill get a different one in by then.

With the SD setup, I wanted to get rid of the 2g MAS without running filterless. This is what I came up with in a hurry, it will do until I find/make a nicer pre-turbo intake/filter. Looks kindy goofy with that filter idk. I also wanted to keep my BOV recirculated.

Swapped the OE looking tan ISC for a good black ISC today.

Today I installed a Ingersoll Rand boost solenoid from Ecmtuning. The boost control function on Ecmlink is badass! Im still tweaking the base duty cycles, once I get that dialed in well I can enable the error correction feature. Just gotta wait for traffic/rush hour to end so I can make some 3rd/4th gear pulls. Being able to fine tune boost levels throughout the RPM range and in different gears is awesome. And for $45, thats cheaper than any good name brand MBC!

Nice, I don't know a whole lot about ECMlink, but that sounds like it's the route to go

Sweet! That is really cheap. Boost by gear sounds like it could be nice too, more for fwd or higher powered cars, but nice to have regardless

My starter solenoid has been causing an intermittent no start, so I swapped it with a spare starter I had. Also, I've had to add coolant a time or two in the past few weeks, pressure test revealed a small leak on the heater hose, just had to tighten the clamp. Almost 3k miles since assembly, its been a great daily driver except the starter recently acting up.

Since I can get Blizzaks for 50% off store cost and I can mount and balance for free, I'm going to be getting a set soon and hoping for snow. Im going with the LM-60s they have a H speed rating. The WS70 is a T.

That is badass. Nice work.
