Chris that was the cheapest flight and the shortest flight, it was either that one or at 9:50pm and i would get there till 12 or 1 am and i would have to wait like 2 hour in between flights. I can just chill at the shop or else sleep outside in your front yard of your shop lol

With the HKS brain, u just daisy chain the gauges together and run one wire out to the box in the engine bay. You then connect the EGT sensor and Boost up to the brain and it sends the signals to the appropriate gauge. Boost controller is also HKS.

ah...i figured that was an MBC, but i wasn't sure. so that HKS box is like the DeFi guages in that you only have to run one wire from the controller. what guages are you running Drew?
I need to get a wideband too..anybody selling one?

Damn. That sure beats the wiring nightmare I went through to get my gauges installed. Well worth the price for such a little amount of hassle.

Chris should be getting the Oil Return Brass Fitting and Flange that was misplaced, i over nighted it yesterday and it says it's on the truck and out for delivery by 10:30. So that should allow Chris to finish up bolting the turbo and oil lines back up today.

Here's what I see happening Friday when Drew shows up at Chris' shop at 0900 for a day of hanging around while his car is being finished.
Drew: (wearing suspensders and a propellor beanie) Hi Chris! I'm here to help you finish my car cuz I can't wait any longer for it! I wanna help!
Chris: Uh OK, sure. Have a seat for a second and I'll let you know when we're ready.
Drew: OK, super! I can hold a flashlight like nobody's business! My Dad says I'm an excellent driver. He lets me drive around the driveway on weekends. I'm an excellent driver.
<2 hours later and Chris finds Drew in the shop area, with a box of Crayons and can of WD-40>
Chris: Come on man, if you wanted to put more graphics on your car you should have let me know.
Drew: It's OK. I had extra time on my hands, what can I help with now? I found this can of brake cleaner and cleaned the brakes of all the vehicles in the shop! I'm a good helper!
<fast forward two hours later to Drew tied to a chair in the corner of Chris' showfloor>
Drew: Come on Chris! Let me help! Dump that box of toothpicks on the floor! I can count them all. 1...2..5! There are 5 of them! Do you need someone to chew your food for you? My teeth are really strong!!
J/K Drew!!! It's the end of a crappy day at work and I needed some humor even if I had to generate myself!

Hahaha Speedfoos, you truly are one of a kind! lol I was laughing so hard here at work, people walk by and are like, you ok?
Chris and I talked last night, he is thinking my car may be done today, so we'll see how it goes. The studs on the block were drilled out and replaced with helicoil and all new studs since the manifold and turbo is so heavy. I can't wait to see this thing when i get down there.
