Soon my friends, soon. I just finished with the manifold, drilled the TB plate for idle, tomorrow 1st thing in the morning I am driving to muffler shop and have them bend me a pipe to go into the TB. I will be tuning part throttle cruising on way there, and on way back home I will be tuning WOT.

Finally got the charge pipe hooked up, the muffler shop did not want to do it, their 90deg mandrel machine does not make such sharp turn. So I just got a 90degree coupler instead.
Drove around, still have to tune it though so cant provide any performance feedback. However during WOT, when I left off, the car stayed at WOT lol, Good thing I am mentally prepared for random crap like that, so I hit neutral and it closed.
The TB cable lever thingy (w/e you call it, what the cable pulls on) got stuck against the hood, since my mounts are bad the engine lifts up at WOT, revving with no load it did not touch because engine dosent move much. So I lifted the hood a bit, put some spacers at the mounts, I also put some rubber hoses on the rad support so the hood dosnt close all the way down, gained about an inch or almost. Hopefully it does not touch now.

Just came back from the first tune. Feels good, torque feels more linear with a constant pull. It does not hit the hood anymore.
I learned that even with the z33 manifold the afr between banks is still different. I read on the z forum that there is no explanation. Boost was at about 13-14psi. Still needs more tuning, during spoolup from a roll it drops into the 9's afr then to 11s.
What heat cover? Might do track on Wed.
