So its all tuned except for 1st gear breaking up at WOT, but not at part throttle. All other gears are fine, so I have to figure out 1st. 32 psi feels wild, and the power comes on so smooth that the tires stay hooked up and pulls hard.

Mod of the day: Installed new catchcan breather setup and 4 bar map sensor. Tune is all out of wack again, gotta retune it all

Built speaker-pods yesterday, and today built a fitted sealed sub box for the center console. Never been a fan of 10's but in this case I couldnt get anything else to fit.

Stoopid RB26 decided to develop a little leak on the banjo bolt that feeds the coolant to the turbos. Couldn't get a wrench on it due to the rear turbo being right in the way. Lucky enough all I had to do was take the down pipe off and unbolt the rear turbo... cause you know thats REAL easy. Found that the copper crush washers were fucking fubar'd. All that work for two $0.79 parts.

Modded my Torque Split Controller into the dash where the clock was. F'n stupid clock LoLz. Also put in my boost selector switch. Need get some labels made up... I'm thinking 'Fast' (1 bar) and 'Faster' (1.5-1.8 bar). Oh yeah wired my wideband into the Datalogit so I can log my A/F's.

re-indexed the torsion bars. Still not where I want it and didnt have the appropriate tools to remove the bump-stop perches so this is as low as it'll go for now. Now that I know how things work I'm going to order a set of 4" blocks and than i'll take it apart again.

Sure loosening them would've worked but I wasnt looking for a bouncy ride and figured I'd do it the "proper way" before getting an alignment.
