Cannot wait for some spark cut launch control. Should be boosting tomorrow. I have a bit of intercooler piping to weld and then it will be good to go.

I really wanted one of @TheBandit's baller coolant inlets, but I realized this build is supposed to be about building the best things I can make with what I have. Not buying the best parts, and I feel like I've left that path a bit. So I busted out the welder and came up with this. I'm very happy with the welding. It was full of grease and took some careful heat management to keep from blowing out the fitting.

If you look at the finished picture I actually cleaned the weld area really well. Acetone, wire wheel, etc etc.

I did a thing today. Snagged this off @acedeuce802
Going to do my own backing plate. And hopefully squeeze a boost gauge on the left, and AFR gauge on the right.
