We've made good progress since Craig brought the car to the shop and we put it on the lift. We're down to installing the BTM, the FM computer and the guages. I expect the car to be running today, if we don't run into issues...
Oh, and I welded shut that big gap where Craig cut the inner fender area for the turbo to clear. It's painted and looks much nicer now...

Well today was a good day, and Craig got to drive the car. It's overpowering the clutch and making a bunch more boost than I'd prefer, but he's gonna be on the phone w/FM tomorrow... Overall the instal went well, and now having done one, I'm guessing I could do one in a weekend.
Here are a few pics of his build:
