I keep having terrible boost creep issues so I decided to port out my wastegate hole some


Yes, I did vacuum out the shavings before putting the wastegate back on. I vacuumed it out as I went too, but then after pulling out the towels on each side I made sure to get any other shavings out as well
Here you can see where the injector resistor box and power transistor are relocated to


And this is how it looked 2 weeks in...still lol

I was waiting on a missing part from the powder coater before I could put the new water pump on and the timing, so I decided I should just drop my transmission instead and replace my throw out bearing. Obviously, logical alternative.


Had to replace the knock sensor because I had the old one hardwired in because the connector broke

Had an extra one of these so swapped the nicer looking one into the car

Seems like the catch can between my pcv and intake is doing its job, that's a lot of fluid for about a month of driving

I have never had a hood latch for my car and couldn't figure out why I could never get one to bolt up. Well, I noticed I was missing this metal piece. So put it onto the cover in my car and bam, I finally have a hood latch release

The connector for my temp sensor was kind of broken, but some two part epoxy fixed that right up


The saturn alternator swap caused me to have a slightly different alternator tensioner setup, so I always had to grind down a bolt some to get the bolt to fit in this slot

Fixed that problem, no more ground bolts. Just hollowed out the slot some

Picked up a spare 6 bolt motor and a box of parts for very very cheap, couldn't pass up the deal

Got the wiring harness back from Kevin, this thing is great!

And car is back together! Fuse box will be relocated very soon, Kevin just forgot to include the bracket when he shipped the harness. Oh, and I got my other parts back from the powder coater, obviously
