I hope all your progress is still going well!

Has there been any update to this?

Ive vented and ducted the radiator, in the engine bay, I will be running copper lines for cooling under the car. Gotten a valve job on the ej20 engine, rebuilt the head and replaced the hoses. Ive also gotten my renegade kit in for mounting the engine. For fuel, ive got an msd hi-flow in line pump, subaru swap fuel lines are coming in from tangerine. As for electronics, I bought a stinger ECU and just need the wiring harness from outfront (outback) motorsports, put in a autometer tach, a Hks EVC 5 boost controller, outback will be dyno tuning it. Currently figguring out my piping for the intercooler.... Ill be running air/water intercooler. I also dropped off the eisher plans for the cable shift system for the tail 914 at my machinist friend whos fabbing it up for me and rebuilding my tranny. Got my upholstery in a shop down in Irvine detting dressed back up and a new momo steering wheel.

If you want some pics or measurements of anything let me know.

Hey guys,
I know I haven't posted in a long time. So I will try to catch everyone up on what has been going on.

Well over the summer, I got everything installed into the car.
-engine mounted
-radiator in
-all plumbing done, except exhaust

It was pretty much ready to start and the motor turned, but would never fire. I ended up realizing that I had some serious mismatches with my wiring/engine/ecu combo and everything was all fuched up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) So that kinda stopped me in my tracks for a while.

Soooo,

I have decided to go with a EMS stinger from outfront motorsports and a custom harness from them. It should be here today I think. I will hopefully be installing it this weekend.

Minus the giant price tag, the Stinger will be AWESOME!!!
-Full programmability
-live diagnostics
-live readouts
-data acquisition and analysis


I will let you know when it is all in.

-Peter

P.S.

Does anyone have the big concave washers for mounting 911 sport mounts at the engine mount points on the chassis?
