Thank you
Still waiting for my springs to show up along with a few other parts. Waiting to install the injectors and fuel pump until I can get the scaling right on the intake. I have no clue what I'm doing when it comes to tuning

Its been an eventful week. I have had so many problems mostly tuning issues. I had most the parts installed without to many problems. The spring install was a little rough at the end, I had a nut that was not cooperating. I drove 1.5 hours to IndyEvo(nic)'s house to install the injectors. After the install with the help of Kozmic(eric) we got it running and were attempting to get some logs but had some issues that we thought were software related. It was late so I headed home and drove it really easy tried to stay out of boost. I downloaded new software and still could not log. Saturday I returned to nic's house and we drove to Hoongs(alex)'s house and he checked the ROM and noticed Mode23 had not been enabled. We fixed that and then found out evoscan was not recognizing my wideband for AFR's. After a trip to the autoparts store for a volt meter and a trip to Jordans house we got that lined out. Kozmic was busy with family stuff and was unavailable to help us with the tune so I decided to just try to get some logs on the way home and send them to him hoping I could load a new ROM for Sunday. Im crusing down the interstate at 3k RPM's and lose all power. Traffic is so bad I have to pull over to the left side of the interstate. 120$ and 45 minutes later I'm loaded on a flatbed headed back to nic's.
Started trouble shooting I could hear the fuel pump running but no fuel in the lines. We pulled the pump and found out that I am a failure at fuel pump installs. One of the lines had popped off inside the tank.
Its very late at this point and I almost just stayed in Indy because I had to return at 7am the next morning for Winged Warrior. Drove home and didn't even feel like trying to log I just wanted to get home before my son fell asleep. Woke up next morning and drove to Indy. Car ran horrible during the event but I enjoyed meeting with people I had talked to on the forum. There is always next year and I will definitely give myself alot more time to prepare.

My clutch went out a couple of weekends ago at a local meet. I have been looking around at different clutches and flywheels and finally decided to go with the Spec 3+ and ACT streetlite flywheel. I also ordered the Magnus cmc kit w/evo9 mc and it has already arrived. I am waiting for the clutch and flywheel to get here and I am looking into which fluids/bolts I should change during the install.
I also picked up an AMI Customs dual A-pillar pod and an AEM boost guage.
