IC piping done now? Looking good, You weren't shitting about those welds! I am looking forward to wiring up the ECU when I get time. It is just a scarry task whenever I look at it (maybe I can email or talk to Gary Brooks and get some pointers?!). I want to get that thing ready for ABF just as much as you do... Oh yeah, I got a surprise for everyone at Izzy's tomorrow... See you then!

looks good david.. you are making quick work.. I have two hoses where i have no clue.. where they go.. well I have an idea.. but.. meh.. you know how it is..



have a buddy comming over this weekend to work on my car.. (weld up the intercooler).. haven't decided on the bov.. thinking tial 50mm.. but that can be added later.. (6 inch flanges can be had on ebay for cheap)

OH!!... and ontop of all that.. I cant find for the life of me.. find the oil pressure plug on my harness.. i am getting blind i swear

I don't know about quick work. It seems to be taking forever for the amount of hours that I have put into it.



I have heard only good from the tial 50mm. They are reasonably priced IIRC.



I would really like to see your bikes send me a PM with pics if you get a chance. They are turbo'd right? Hell throw them up in this post so that everyone can see if you want.



That 3rd gen harness is a mess. It spanned from one end of the garage to the other when fully unwound. So I feel your pain on this one. This is part of the reason I went with the microtech and harness...so so clean!

Wow, looking good. I wish that I had an r6...has always been my dream bike. As the years progress I have always wanted one. Even with all the new bikes they come out with.



UPDATE:

Last night I started to make the modifications in the hood. It is kind of scary cutting up your only hood. I took the measurements 5-6 times though so I think that I am ok. When I first made the marks they were not lining up and it was really frusterating me because it did not look symmetrical. However since then I have corrected the problem and all is ready to go.



Much of the sub-structure has to be cut out. I was a little afraid that this would affect structural integrity however after thinking for a little decided that with the sides that are going to be welded I will probably nmot have any issues. When I get a free chance I will weld it up and take a picture. It should look pretty cool. For those that know what the mantis hood(rotorhead.ca) looks like it will be pretty close.



Here are a couple pictures of what I am going for.

my gauges are autometer, sport comp line, They have been the standard forever. You can get them pretty cheap through summit or jegs.
