Excellent work mike. Hopefully I can join the boosted I30 club by the end of the summer, still putting together my engine pieces, and have to get transmission built for it.

I wouldn't be able to sleep after spending that much time on a project, aside from just the anticipation of the project as a whole. I'd be up all night playing with it.

My back and arms are killing me more than anything. Seriously, I am really excited to drive it tomorrow. I still got a full day of work on the thing with the FMU, bumper, trip to the muffler shop for some welding, and a huge clean up.

There is too much to list, if you have specific questions just ask



Almost forgot to say thanks to all those who helped. IceY21, StephenMax, Bags, On_Alert , and all those in the boosted forum for the info. Nealoc187, DaveSz, BriguyMax, MaximumHp for helping turn some wrenches. DaveSz was my big hero when he extracted an oil pan bolt I broke off. Thanks alot guys!!!!!

Broken oil pan bolts are fun. Luckily I had just bought some bolt extractors from a previous frustrating experience working on a maxima. I am glad you got yours out.

I like the turbo. Good luck with it. I want one too.
