It isnt what it seems.
It was all kind of a big test fit.
Im trying to get the FMIC to line up with the new bumper. (If you look closely i have it on a jack)
Oil pan is still on the floor
gotta put spacers an new bolts for the bumper so i can get the intercooler right
gotta drill manifold for egt
no vacuum lines are connected
exhaust is somewhere.....else...
ecu is still in box
Im prayin dan will come next weekend to give me a hand. My mechanic is leaving town so im on my own
