FORGED INTERNALS PROJECT/TT 100% DONE

Like a kid a Disneyland, like a virgin sneaking into a sorority house, like a....you get the picture.

Yes, you read that right she's finally home now. I hate to start this thread w/o pics of the finished product, but I couldn't wait to tell everyone. I will post threads asap tomorrow!!!

I picked up my Z around 430 with Todd (aka 350zdcalb) and went for a good long drive. Eventhough I kept it under 3500RPMs, she was begging for more but my will was strong. Crazy though, eventhough I kept it low, with my new wastegate springs that are rated for 11.5psi, boost kept creeping up on me. At one point I saw 5psi. The original plan was to wait like 2 weeks for the tuning, but I think I will have to cut that back to 1 week because it might be too risky to try and keep my boost down. Don't worry though, it was street tuned up to 4000 RPMS and is safe to drive. I will definately put at least 1k miles on it for the breakin period. I will wait to give reviews on things such as the new ATS Twin plate carbon clutch after a week of driving. But, I will say launching could never be easier, and it never even died on me.
And the body kit, OMFG, so freakin SIC!!! If you thought my Z was low before...Just wait for those pics.
