Damn, you got off easy since that could have gone a lot worse. Electric work is the worst and I hate doing it, but it pays to be methodical and thorough. Re-wiring my car is on my to-do list and it's not something I'm looking forward too.

I can't believe someone besides me is telling a story like that.

Ha ha, well it's gunna happen if you do it long enough I guess! I've been working on wiring, got one of these:

Innovative Motorsports A/F gauge

But I need a place to put everything, so I'm fabbing up the center console. It's going to be different... So far is involves a road bike handlebar... So I have to get the console finished before I can start the wiring.

The latest "pair" of MCs is in now, but the exhaust is out so I havn't been able to but it on the road to see if I've discovered the right combo of MC sizes to run in balance.

Having another bung welded onto my exhaust for the wideband O2 sensor, so it may see the dyno in the next couple of weeks for more tuning. I want it to run well stock then finish up the interior, then go back for the big turbo.

Pics to come.

Here's a couple of vids from tuning:

Flame thrower?

Dyno Run

I like this pic shot next to blue neon:



The new shop space:



On the dyno, he's one building over from where the new shop is, how convenient!

Damn, I wish you were closer to south bay. I've been looking for a couple folks to go in on 2500 sq/ft of shop space, and it's only 1500/mo in the middle of town. It's one of those friends only deals. :P Your setup looks pretty good so far, I'm gonna have to head up there again and check it out
