Thank you. As an aside I have the FM exhaust hangers and they are fantastic. The exhaust is rigid as ****. Just passing along that info as well. I’m happy as there are a few tight tolerances and there is little to no play in the exhaust so I’m not really worried about any contact.
Doubtful...he’s doing my fuel pump, working on the reservoir for the exhaust, and gonna put it on the dyno while he has it 😀. His wait list is huge so he just told me if I want something done tell him now so he’s going to tune it.
Fuel Pump setup finishing up. Looks good. Also getting close on the heat shield. Just waiting on a few other pieces for the exhaust valve. Moving forward.
I'm surprised he did not braze/weld the AN fuel fittings to the OE stubs- or even compression adapters. And ugh- those OE clamps. IMO this is much like the wiring- while you're in there.
Do you, uh.... need to block off that turbo shaft speed sensor port?
No worries, that’s a blind hole. BW is nice enough to pre-machine the majority of the sensor mount for you. If you add a sensor you just take a hand drill to open it up the rest of the way.

Im not sure what exactly you are referring to? Can you explain?
Exactly- I bet your fabricator could even braze those to the OE stubs. Though I wonder if the OE stubs are now the choke point in the fuel system? Don't know if they're smaller ID than your new hose.
Exhaust solenoid is in too and wired in...he’s trouble shooting a voltage problem...the car starts and runs but the voltage is low...it’s a new alternator so I dunno...either **** alternator or some other issue.
I was thinking the same thing. Here I was, all proud of the heat shield that I built and even took time to grind off the sharp edges so they wouldn’t cut me.
Tony, a 135 degree coupler from Silicone Intakes will move that air filter mostly around the back of the heat shield.
You cannot pass a wire through a bulkhead into fluid like that. The submerged fuel pump connector is not sealed, so fuel will wick its way up that wire and out of the tank. Just FYI.
