yes, the strut bar is still leaning on the bench. It will go in after I'm done dealing with the details.
Is it the blower or the intercooler that'* warped?

I had it sealed last time, but I had to torque it a bit higher, so I'll try that.

Ya, I'm happy, it now whines louder then a 2 year old denied a cookie. Can't wait to get the tune worked in and then drop another pulley size.

A ton of work, but I think it'* worth it. I'm happy with the sound. Can't wait to iron out the rest and get the tune.
