That sucks about the boost controller! Remember what you bought it for? I could give you your money back if you wanted to give me the boost controller back.

Car looks super clean though!

Thanks for the tip, will any hi-temp paint work?

That would be a good idea. Wire brush the welds before painting it

Update: Got link to work, I never downloaded the updated drivers (face palm). Got the random misfire to go away. Also, my injectors were set to 560's and I'm still running stock 450's! No wonder my car was backfiring.

REBUILD NEXT WEEK!
Parts I picked up:
-Evo 9 pistons/1g rods (Got a good deal on these)
-Ross racing pistons/eagle H beam rods
-Cometic engine gasket kit
-ACL tri metal main/rod bearings
-arp headstuds
-fel pro composite HG from oreillys
-PTE 1000cc injectors
-Gates timing kit
-Balance Shaft eliminator
-AEM Wideband
-Redline cocktail for the transmission

Maybe pick up redline lightweight for the Xfercase and rear diff. (Or should I grab the 75w90?)

This is my current plan since she will be my school car for the next few years until I graduate. She will maybe see the track once a year but other than that I will be driving her to work once a week and maybe a cruise every weekend along the North Shore.

Anyone able to help me install some evo valvesprings this week once I get her pulled out? Name your price! Else if I can borrow the valvespring compressor I'll grab you a case of beer or something.
