Finally got a new brake booster! From centric. Just need to finish adapting my hose and tps and I can get this thing up to the shop and put a new clutch in it and reseal the trans, replace the pushrod bushing and such. Using a foam filter wrap for the horns.

TPS didn't quite fit proper so i had to make an adapter..

Hopefully pulling the trans this weekend, replacing the clutch for the nine millionth time and resealing the pushrod and input shaft.

Pushrod bushing needed replacements, took the seal out and ruined my clutch disc.

Well mine is running but it idles at 3500rpm lol. Thanks go to Nick to spotting my n00b move of hooking my fuel lines up backwards. Also my coil magically took a shit over winter  I will be bringing the smoke machine home to check for vacuum leaks, the charger for my baby battery and the fuel pressure tester because i need to set my adjustable FPR.

I think i need to re-synch the center 2 butterflies, If i spray brake clean into the center trumpets it bogs, the outers do not. i already relearned the TPS for Min and Max. Will probably need to readjust once get the throttles all cooperating.

Well, I have been having problems getting it tuned at idle properly, finally had some progress, test drove it, pulls like crazy, at less than half throttle. Read:My battery wasn't fully secure and it was trying to climb into the back of my car if I went over half throttle. I get back home, shut it off. flip the battery around to resecure it. Attempt to restart the vehicle with no success. All of a sudden I have no communication to the ECU on my laptop. After searching all this week, I finally pulled it out of the car, hooked it up to the Stim and was able to reflash the Firmware with the latest update, updated tuner studio and now it communicates. 

Plausible conclusion that it was a matter of a voltage spike from reconnecting my battery that damaged the firmware?

need to tweak my high end. Right now power dies out at 5500 which is not right at all, I just need to get some drive time in to make some adjustments. I drove it to work for the first time this year though. And lowered the front a fuzz, replaced the strut tops as they were blown out, rewired some things in the bay, refastened my battery, changed the oil, checked it over etc.
