It has a bit of an idle issue, which is probably in the tune, it set code P0507 and idles too high right now....but I'll call Allen tomarrow and see whats up

took it on a short test drive and went up to half throttle a few times and everything seems fine, sounds awesome, and even at half throttle it was much more powerful....it was weird seeing the speedo climb that fast

once I get the idle figured out I'll be good to go

Allen will get you set up just right! I appreciate all of the Photos and info about your install. I plan to do one in a year or so. And of course, be sure to make a video, can't forget that!

The intercooler is inside the intake manifold underneath the blower. An external pump pushes coolant through the intercooler, heat exchanger (behind my valence), and coolant reservoir.

I had the tb gasket on backwards

but now all is good, idles perfect, shifts good, hauls butt....I couldn't be happier

anything under half throttle and it feels like it did before, no driveability issues or anything to speak of....but then at half to 3/4 throttle it feels like 50 more hp...then WOT is just awesome - theres nothing like having 100+hp at your disposal
