omg ugly as hell:
Damn that's nasty
It's hard to look at right?
USDM 2j cams are in as well as the 550's. I scaled back my fuel values and it started right up last night. Albeit a little rich but I'll tune it this week. Made the o2 flange and put it on as well as finised the 2" dump for the WG it's gonna sound nasty. Today is finish the downpipe and put in my shiny new Uras jzx81 cat back
Btw, today is my birthday. I hope it can drive as my present. I wanna drive it soooo bad!

That was just the "hey it's done" video. Sorry if I'm the only one who's happy by this.
First impressions are pretty good. I made sure it's hella rich and drove it around. Spool is pretty good the wastegate cracks open under 4k rpm. I think I can get it to spool faster after tuning. It's still faster at 3krpm than the stock stuff so I think this will turn out great. I'm going to try and get on the dyno tonight. Just for you Ric

okay it looks like I'll be tuning tomorrow night. It's coming down to truth or consequences here. Omg will it live up to my $250 expectations?
1jzneil: care to predict? You seem to be the only one here that's qualified.

yeah I know. aem uego went in last night. I dont wanna drive it too hard until I tune it.
Drifting video I can promise. Dyno video? If you guys want but I think it's kind of boring.

I want to see the dyno just to hear what it sounds like, some pics to see what it looks like set up would be nice too. #s are the most important part
I drove it all day tuning fuel and got it nice and rich. Right now it's hitting 10psi at 3700-3800 in 3rd. 4th and 5th is even lower. Please keep in mind I have very conservative timing curves on it right now since I don't have a knock sensor. Even with pussy timing and 10psi it's faster than my stock stuff at 15-16psi. Sure spool isn't as good but it doesn't fall on it's face at 5krpm either.
On the way home I had fun with an ls1 firebird 3rd-4th gear. Really cool guy too thumbs up and all that.
More updates as they come.
