Last night we mounted up the oil cooler and filled the cooling system with coolant. I got the fittings to make my lines fit on the cooler but forgot them at work and wasn't going to go back and get them. So we're planning on finishing it up on Tuesday night and doing the initial start up and run it for 20min. Then it will sit until we get some spring weather.

I also picked up a boost-a-pump from cornfed2.4. Just have to make sure it's the right one before it's installed. I'm going to get a few interior parts from his 1g to help clean up the interior of my car.

Haha no. I meant I filled the cooling system with coolant. I suppose I could have worded that better. Post has been edited

Everything is coming together! I vote that you should run the PTE 6766, twin scroll T4. It would be my turbo of choice if I moved out of 42R land. A 67mm car is much much more forgiving to drive, it’s much easier to stay in boost the entire pass. Especially during the 1-2 shift.
What intercooler is on the car?

I'm excited for the snow to go away lol! As of right now I'm planning on a 6766 t4 Twin Scroll with a 1.32 a/r. Boostin performance was extremely helpful in helping me decide what route to go. They are definitely very knowledgeable. As of right now funds are starting to dry up for this project so I will probably have to go the journal bearing route but would much rather go ball bearing if I can. Then I just need to figure out where I'm going to have my new exhaust made

As for the intercooler its a redjack racing. I believe it's a custom one Swifty had someone he knows make. I'd have to measure it to get the specs on it.

Alright I was able to measure my ic core tonight. It's 4.5in thick, 12in tall, and 24in wide, and it has a 3in inlet and outlet.

Alright wasn't planning on working on the car tonight but finished things up tonight. She's ready to fire up. We're going to be starting her up for the first time in 8 months this weekend!

Also found one of my disappointing dyno sheets from when I was having alternator issues while at db. The numbers are uncorrected. Lol
