I got the IAT and 3.5 bar map sensor harnesses for the AEM, so we'll be wiring that in tonight, along with finishing up the turbo system and lower intake runners. Probably gonna be putting the interior back together too.

Got fucked when we tried to install the timing belt tensioner. One of the holes in the oil pump was stripped. Murphy's law; what can go wrong, will go wrong; so instead of retapping it, we pulled the motor (took 4 hours, pretty good I say!) and are now in the process of changing the oil pump. I feel much better about it this way than I would if we retapped it. Here's a play-by-play on pulling the motor.
