Has anyone ever read anything good from this guy? God you bug me.
How do you plan on getting your T trim smogged?
Dude never has anything constructive to add. EVER.

now to address the smog thing, my cars registered in central point oregon where theres no emissions laws. got it covered cobra homie. however if you can only register in an area which requires smog, dont buy this kit... theres no way you could ever make it legal.

10:5:1 brian cowler or cower or something like that. im not running high compression anymore. like i said i reverted back to stock and sold the parts. im just running the stock 9:8:1. we're getting off topic again.
anyway i took apart my wastegate today to inspect the shaft. shaft looked good but i discovered that the diaphragm was pinched, i assume during assembly. infortunately it has a small crack but it doesnt go all the way through. i tried contacting on3 today by calling but couldnt get in contact that way so i emailed them through ebay and am waiting for a responce... on another not my fuel pump is officially underway as of today courtacy of S&H performance.

So here's the update. On the first im buying the tuner. Im still trying to locate somewhere i can do the install but that may be me going out of town then towing back. I was going to do the install this weekend but plans fell through because of the rain and i ran out of money to buy those last minute parts you always find yourself needing. Postponed until further notice

Ok so after a couple set backs and almost loosing the project all together we're finally back on track. I've made a couple changes to the setup that cost a bit more money but heres the progress so far. Bought a mitsimoto (or however you spell it) radiator and the 14" thin fan is in the mail from AM. Also installed the fuel pump from S&H performance. Finally did the tuner swap and im now running the sct itsx with bama tuning from AM. I cannot stress this enough but that deal they offer is by far the best money ive ever spent on that car. Also i bought the 07-10 coolant setup which ran me round $250 with my employee discount through my dealership and im going to install it when i get the fan. Also im going to do away with the knockoff wastegate and bov and install a tial 38mm wastegate and tial 50mm bov and also upgrade the coils to the msd blaster packs as well as some spark plugs thatll run one heat range cooler. After that its install and tune time.

Theres a bigger picture in the future im working towards using my car as a ginnea pig and force fed being a part of. Its a loooong ways off but if i keep busting my ass everday and stick with my plan, one day ill be getting paid to do what i love. If i bought scts mapping program itd be pointless seeing as how id use it to tune my car 1 time then never use it again plus to be completely honest, i dont know how to use it and am nowhere near as experienced as billy is to make a good tune.

Sometimes it's hard to find quality work from a shop, I've been to AED and you guys really do care about your customers and their cars. Keep up the good work guys.
I've been to some of the shops around the Dallas area here for tunes and have been like WTF is this? Some shotty work for top dollar and that pisses me off, I feel for the customer and the quality of work they're getting.
+1 dfw shops are pretty shitty. I usually work on my own cars (can't do gears so I'm forced to go to a shop). If I need a tune or major work I might try lethal performance or just take a trip to ca if possible. Haven't been all year.
Back on topic tho I have an 07 gt and wouldn't want to cheap out on something (ESP. Boost) and have to fix it after it fucks up already learned my lesson I'm lucky I'm just out a few hundred and not thousands. Reliable and fast are my priorities respectively. Just my 2 cents.

90gt yeah i agree to a point. If i was just looking to get it done i woulda just bought a centyfigual sc and gotten it over with. While yes they do work, ive had bad experiences with them in the past. Im taking my time and making sure i do things as close to right as possible for this build
