So i made an intake pipe tonight and got a boost leak tester from cornfed2.4. Thanks!
Now I just need to do a boost leak test. Fix any boost leaks if there are any and the car will be ready to get tuned. Just a little over a week to make sure everything is good to go!

I forgot I accidentally leaned on one of the ignition coils and broke it when I put the new alternator bracket in. The car still ran fine with no miss fires but I picked up some coils and replaced it this weekend. now I have a few spares if I ever need them.

I still need to do a boost leak test sometime asap.

she goes on the dyno for a tune one week from tomorrow. I'm getting nervous and excited lol. It's going to be a long week to say the least

Might be hard to skip out on a Monday but I'll try haha. You know if you have the rest of the day for the tune or just a few hours?

Thanks! I feel like I need it lol. After what happened last year on the dyno I have definitely taken the time to go through this thing as good as I possibly could. Shane gave me a list of stuff to do last year and I've done everything on that list. I've gone over the checklist on db's website. I think a boost leak test is all that's left that I need to do. I will also comb over things to make sure I didn't miss anything.

Okay man sounds good just keep me posted. As for the dyno time I'm not sure. I made the appointment a while ago and Shane knows my car lol so I would assume he allotted enough time for it. Not sure how long it will take but based on how things went last year I would guess it will be on the dyno till 5 or 6. Unless it goes a lot faster this time

Shane should setup live streaming from his Dyno room so we can all watch our friends dyno :)

Could be done quick and dirty with a uStream embed.

With less Swifty jankiness out of the engine bay, it will most likely go quicker. haha
