Great work Mike. You're almost to the good part now. The part where you get to enjoy your hard work. Our setups are almost identical except for the cams. It will be interesting to see where you are in respect to PSI and HP. I think you'll make more HP than me and your boost will be higher.

P.S. I just noticed the serial number on your JDM shortblock....105. Mine is 107. That would of been a trip had mine been 106 or 104 haha.

Im shot for the day, worked from 11am till now.....
Tomarrow I gotta change the belt, pulley, and maybe remove the front sway bar to get more piping clearance..... But before that I have to gas her up with 93 drive the shit out of the car... Im having a slight tune issue where Ill stall while coming up to a stop... I spoke to BBR's steve and he said thats my ecu re-learning the new BBR tune for the 60lb'ers and dual pumps..... Any of you guys here of something like this? I know our ecu's can adapt like that, Ive just never had a prob like this.... Oh its not vac related as ill pull a soild -22hg at idle and no CEL's are thrown...

I think I ordered it around the same time. I've been running it NA since around Feb., but I had it sitting in my house for several months before that. That's just wild.

Love the catch can breather. I have the same UPR can too lol. Where did you get that little valve to tap into the side of it ? The blow by is a little worse than I thought so I think I need to stick my catch can back in there.
