I also dont approve of Z1 diff cover, in my exp, it did not deliver a sufficient amount of oil to the teeth of the ring and pinion, i had to rebuild it, i highly suggest the Nismo finned cover it has a much better oil pick up guides design.

I also have the borg warner wastegates welded shut, and have the external tial wastegates welded on the manifold, waaaay better i agree.

Also the AAM intercooler is a pice of ****, you need a better one by design i use the fast intensions intercooler it has less restrictions.

If you are not using the A/C then cut the condenser from the radiator to increase cooling.

One more thing wrap the intake pipes from the intercooler to the intake manifold in heat resistant wrap material, this will keep that cool air not being heated by the heat under the hood, be4 it gets to the manifold.
I agree with everything here. There are a lot of holes in this build that should of been addressed. Would of prevented a lot of issues. Fast intentions uses some of the best intercooler on the market “bells intercooler”
