I finished building my MS finished (I think). Now I just need to solder up the harness.

I made a coolant temp sensor mount this weekend too.

Stripped everything out for a smog check next weekend. Before that it was running so well I didn't have anything to whine about. No misses, no hesitation on accel, no rolling idle. ASE is a little off but it still starts every time. It runs better in DD conditions than stock, which is strange because I have my maps at 14.7 for <4k rpms and <70 kPa. It still throws a CEL when running parallel so maybe it's a little too rich.

The aero on the underbody sounds like an interesting project. I've considered that but I've heard you can generate significant lift if you don't know what your doing and I have no idea what I'm doing.
