My 6 is blown now :)
Finally got the sc in, having FMU trouble, but by G it's in there. Got a few bugs to work out. A/C compressor bearings decided to fail right after I got it in. That figures, because it just so happens sc is MOUNTED RIGHT IN FRONT OF IT..... :banghead: Blown in Boca Jessica

Pretty good, but I really can't go ballistic on the throttle till I get the FMU right. Left a 5 foot strip yesterday from a 20 mph roll. Neato. Too cool. Soon I shall be a jedi....soon

The FMU is acting up. I did leave rubber yesterday for the first time on DRY pavement.
Gotta work some bugs out. My ac compressor just decided to throw the bearings, so I have to fix that too.

Yah, I put it in myself. Took most of Saturday, because I had a used kit, and two diff. Types of instructions, that when mixed and matched, kind of resembled my install. My **** FMU is broke. So right now I cant runn under boost. Never kicks in and it is all hooked up right. So getting a new one.

Well the FMU is in but the computer is retarding the timing too much, and really holding back the sc. What a drag.
