well i made some good progress today, worst part was every spark plug on the drivers side broke and none on the passesnger side...figures id break them on my own truck ive yet to have one break on a customer vehicle . Anyways got all the plugs changed over s/c mounted and currently working on the pullies and brakets. Found my tensioner puller was getting noisy so i replaced that.

tomorrow intercooler mounting, coolant hoses, electric water pump wiring, oil change to 0w40 mobil 1 and new fuel filter. Gauges will haveto wait till next week when i have more time.

heres a pic of what it looks like at the moment, yes i know everything is dirty :P

Looks good man! Did you get that PM I sent back? Sorry havent been on lately but I use stock MAF and stock housing size at 10PSI. You'll be fine with their upgraded housing and stock MAF. All it is, is you have to change what amount of air is flowing by at what voltage based on the tube size.

Oh and NOW IS THE TIME to put on your boost gauge, otherwise once the blower is bolted in for good its a PITA to get the vac line behind the blower. I had to do it that way and it sucked ***** man.

well here she is all finished. pretty good kit the only thing im not wild about is the air intake setup SUCKS!, talk about a pain in the A**. Anyways it runs good and hauls! Cant wait for a better tune tho the trans shifting is way to soft for my liking.

P.S. DO NOT RELY ON THE TUNE TO FIRM UP YOUR SHIFTS


do it the right way and add a shift kit or else your playing with fire
