[QUOTE="eaglesnick, post: 13158356, member: 6445"] Gabe, as always, I hope this week :beer: There is still a bit to be done, they have to still finish up some stuff on the top end with the whipple and the intake hasn't been installed yet. Then they have to install Stifflers FIT system then on to the fuel lines and the rest of the exhaust (headers are already in). We have a couple of other things we need to work out from a timing standpoint as well. I have a 3-point strut tower brace that we are going to see if we can modify and allow us to remove the JLT high boost intake pipe without having to remove the entire strut tower brace, but we have to check and see once it's all in if modifying the brace will allow us to remove the tube, if not then I'm just going to have it powder coated and install it. We are also waiting for Stifflers to finish their lower chassis brace to fit the stock K-member and clear headers (their current brace doesn't clear headers), we have already test fitted one of their designs and they needed to tweak a couple of things. Once the chassis brace is done I need to have the chassis brace and spider bracing installed, but I am not going to wait for the chassis brace if the car is done before the brace. The plan is to get the car finished and running and see where we are with the brace, if the brace isn't finished we are going to load a basic tune and set the rev-limiter to about 4k and I'll drive the car a bit to break in the clutch.
