Weathers decent most the time, economy is top notch, huge horsepower scene, hot girls, great food, hi speed limits, great scenery (coastal, hill country, dense forest, mountains, deserts and grass lands) and we don't relate much to the rest of the country! You know you always have a spot to crash if you do decide to make a trip!

I'm not ashamed to admit I'll be much less help once we start wiring stuff up. For some reason I have a mental block for electrical stuff.

I've had to learn a lot considering all of the electrical additions I've made to the truck. By the time the weekend is over you'll both feel more comfortable with it. I picked up a new ohm meter that also has an amp clamp. We'll be able to troubleshoot any issues pretty easily with it.

It's not that difficult to wire everything up, it's the making it look neat and tiddy that's a pain.

I'm sure I'll get plenty of practice with all of the electronic stuff left on the parts table.

Have you decided if you're going to use that Bluesea cable clam or not?

Yep. My car wants her garage back. "Who is that slut in there? Without her bumper on? While I'm sleeping outside in the cold and rain"

So long weekend again working on the G. Much appreciation to Chuck and Nathan for all their assistance, really couldn't have done it without y'all. Also extremely thankful the GF was supportive and willing to put up with me these past two weeks while the only thing on my mind was successfully moving the G into the BP club. I've got to say that I'm extremely happy with the way everything turned out. Took the car out for a few pre-boost data logs to make sure that there was nothing abnormal going on. There are a few issues I'm having with this base map that I need to discuss with Sasha but they are all driveabililty and have nothing to do with full throttle romping of the car. After we confirmed that there were no serious issue Chuck and I decided it was time to feed the G a little boost and see what it happens. So we set out with Chuck in the passenger seat with UpRev up and logging. After a little minor boost and everything checking out Chuck tells me he's ready to see a full gear pull. This thing pulls hard and it's on WG pressure and really rich. Turbo lag is almost non-existant and boost threshold is really good for a turbo this large!

As I said been a long weekend. Happy Easter to everyone and I'll try and update the thread with weekend work tomorrow.

Off to install my mirror tap for my Passport as I removed the hardwire to make room for the gauges. Really going to need that radar detector now that I'm boosted.
