Honestly, not much really to update. Been working like crazy and only working on it a few minutes here and there. Laying under it now checking everything. Waiting for the thermostat housing so I can adjust and tighten the compressor housing to run the cold side. Wastegate is in and plumbed. Waiting on fan setup and I'll get that wired in. Trimmed the front trim pieces behind the grille so the fit the intercooler. Waiting on injectors too. Completely forgot about those :D

After I get it on the ground, she's getting a serious cleaning for sure

Can you snap a pic that shows the clearance from the turbo to the fans? It looks super tight from that angle

Pretty much at a stand still, waiting on more parts. Just doing little things now like coolant hoses and painting tubes.

Little update. Got the fans installed and wired in. I cut grooves in the abs shroud to keep the wires tucked and symmetrical. For something I'll never see, I sure did take a long time on... Anyways, drivers cold side is in for good and so is the intercooler. Installed the injectors and NGK plugs gapped @.032. Couple other odds and ends and she'll be ready to tune!! :rockon:

And that's with the Roush lower delete. The metal bracket needs trimming but it's not difficult to do at all.
