| Motor build is complete. Most of you already know this. Turbo build is complete but I do not have the car back yet. The celica is at Monkeywrench Racing in Michigan currently. We ran into some mechanical issues during the process (not relating to the turbo kit itself). I'm currently paying on the work done to the car and once I get it back, the motor portion of my project will be complete. | |

| Just got an email from Monkeywrench. They turned up my boost to 13psi. They're trying to get it to hold 13psi in the higher rpms. If it will hold 13psi, I'll be close to 300whp. Smiley faces all around! | |

| Some of you may have seen my post on Facebook but this is for those of you who have not seen it. My car wasn't running right for a while but the guys at Monkeywrench figured out that my cam positioning sensor went bad. Now that a new one is in, I'm currently pushing 280whp @ 12psi on stock cams. Tomorrow (technically today) they will be putting the stage 2 cams back in and will be adjusting the tune a bit to get a little more power out of them. I can't get a whole lot more power out of the cams because my injectors are already at 87% All in all I'm pretty happy with the power I will be making. | |

| I figured out that two of my coil packs had gone bad so I ordered two new ones. They will arrive while I'm here in Georgia for military training. Once I get back home (Friday), I will swap the new coil packs in and check to see how the car runs. If it runs good again, I will swap the stand alone ecu and 700cc injectors back in, turn the boost back up, and start having some fun. | |

| Sam, I can't wait to give you a ride in the celica. I'm still trying to get used to the power.
Most of you already know that my transmission crapped out the same night I got the motor running good. I'm going to pick up a 6 speed transmission on Thursday in Ohio. I think I'll like six gears instead of five. | |
