Got all the vacuum lines on and decided to fire her up, with the MAF unhooked I knew it's gonna run like sh*t, got her up to operating temp and checked everything over. For last minor touches are in the works and she will be on the way to Ron at RSMotors for a tune

I'm in the process of cutting up plexiglass and installing it behind the grill, basicly the whole length of the grill, and it should help a little with rocks/dust/rain. It's not my daily

Btw there is 3 inches behind the grill and the turbo, I'm pretty sure I could find a small filter for it

I just have a question about your -16AN fittings to the radiator and engine. This might be "noobish", but I don't understand why you didn't weld the stock radiator fitting to your radiator? Wouldn't it have been easier? Or is it not possible?

Also, do you have pictures of the water pipe and bottom of the radiator with the -16 AN fittings?

Yea I could've welded them on but I wanted a cleaner look so I went with the 16an fittings. Here's a couple of closeup shots
