Well clutch install went great today!! Started at 8:30am drove the car through the gears on the rack at 12:45pm, than mounted two new tires onto my 17's and that took about an hour! Damn 225/45's lol all said and done i think I did some good timing!
Glad i changed clutch, she was pretty much shot, down to the rivets, all tore up, pressure plate was heat spotted, she had a hard past 50k miles lol happy with the spec, just as easy to push down but releasing you can feel the engagement more

HPT, what I'm going to pick up as soon as a local seller is willing to let it go. Even though I've already sent money to trifecta

Well I stayed late today at work and buttoned up some things! Getting ready for boost! Got my trifecta cable thursday, Tune was ordered Friday, got my exhaust manifold gasket, spark plugs and air filter, so no more parts needed!!! Waiting on trifecta!

Got the heat exchanger mounted, pump mounted and all the hoses ran to where they need to be!!

I can't wait to turbo my LAP, but first I need a clutch and a rebuild on the turbo I have (EFR 6758 on a 2.2 ) which I'm talking to Borg Warner about now.
