It runs, just finishing the exhaust, working on installing methanol injection (note fluid reservoir), also got a dry zex nitrous kit. Haven't had much time in the last 2 months to touch it due to a new job. Exhaust is all stainless, turbo>tips, have a 3" ls1 magnaflow catback on it as well. Got a larger turbine housing for the turbo as well since power plans are now 450-500whp, old one would've choked it off.

Appearance wise, it'll have a stainless radiator cover before it leaves the shop, also the camera makes the car look odd under the hood, must've been the flash, it is dusty from sitting so long but not as bad as it looks.

How are you liking the fff setup? Looks great. I love how you spent alot of money on a v6. But in the end it's still faster then most z28's out there.

Heck of a good job, working for the Union Pacific now in a diesel shop, hoping to get promoted to a machinist position within the year and start bringing the money in. Also shopping for my first house currently, so needless to say this thing has been on the back burner for some time

I was pushing to get it on the dyno early this month, but now I'm probably going to hold off until early next month, just don't have time for it anymore it seems like.

Yes, I was shifting slow The tune is still pretty rough, and the clutch isn't broke in yet (also getting used to this g-force T5). It'll get there, got a few things to do yet, then it's off to the dyno for some tuning. Feels like it's in the 300's for hp already, so with double the boost I think 450 should be easy to do
