    I'm going to try running braided and clamping it for the booster and back of intake, just waiting on a tee. Hopefully it'll work. Just for looks sake.

    Also got a ls2 style waterpump for 07 and up trucks. Clears ls1 intake nice.

    This weekends progress. Trans temp gauge installed and wired. Just need to drill pan for temp sensor. Boost gauge wired and hose ran.

    I picked up this vacuum block off amazon for 14.00 added a 8 an o ring end on it and slapped it in. Pressure tested it to 50psi. Held for a half hour no issues.

    Installed a online power for the trans cooler fan, not sure how I'll like this but better than it running all the time.

    Got some gauges in, scored the boost guage for 20 bucks, the other is just there for looks. It's a old mechanical I use for testing fuel pressure now. Trans temp will be here Monday.

    Got.my battery terminal ends in and finished that up finally. Ordered a vacuum block since I didn't have shit. Waterpump so I can get hoses, a in-line temp switch for my remote trans.cooler.



    Made the guage holder out of 3/16 abs plastic.

    There is a somewhat inexpensive upholstery shop on jacksboro highway. I've seen their work, they do good work. Lets say that the workers may be, well lets say that they don't all speak good english. But from what I can tell, their work is as good as anywhere else, at about half to 2/3 of normal price. I'll be taking anything I have that needs reupholstered to them.

    Started on the mission today to get ms3 fired up and test one fan to make sure of my wiring before finishing it up. Got pissed trying to find a good 12 v keyed source that stayed on while cranking. So this happened.



    I did get to delete some wires, so that was nice.

    I had issues with the drivers for the USB cable. But finally around 2 am I got the damn thing to work. Loaded a tune and changed the temps so fan would kick on. One fan is loud need to hook both up tomorrow and see how loud they are together lol.

    I'm going to leave the dash out and wait for the rest of my wiring stuff to get here, finish it all up before installing it back into the car.

    Was a cool feeling seeing the ecu fire.

    Relay panel and ecu mount done. Winter storm has delayed some parts, but I'll throw this is tomorrow and get the ms3 wired into the car hopefully.
