heres the current punch list.

1. water leak at EWP fitting
2. speedometer unplugged presumably
3. oil leak at AN fittings at either turbo oil feed from galley, or drain line to block bedplate.
4. car is super lean under boost, need to add like 35% more fuel up top.

ok

got the speedo working, and looks like teflon tape on the AN fitting for the water pump did the trick.

If my luck can hold out for my leaking oil fitting, I should be good to at least get a streetable tune worked up this weekend

Strange that Adrian also had the same issue at the same time. Different turbo though I'm thinking.

just wanted to post an update. both cars are running, the ECTs read super low, and sitting idle too long with have them spike, i may replace the pump with a Davies down the road, but for now just wanting to get it tuned and driving.

Blake took his car home last weekend and has the dreaded fuel starvation from the canister that will require a surge tank.

Congrats, they sure change your life, and priorities. Raising a son was the most fulfilling thing I did with my life. Great honor to be called "daddy".
