            I have spared everyone the multiple updates that chronicle every little step of the build over the last week. But I now have an update worth sharing.

            She moved under her own power today!!!!!!!!!!!

                      Here is the 3" exhaust I finished up today. It starts at a 3.5" down pipe then reduces to a 3". I am using a 22" Magnaflow resonator/glass pack in the middle of the exhaust and I finished it up with a Flowmaster 70 series muffler. I wrapped the down pipe and don't worry the Turbo Delete is only for break in purposes. Once the engine gets it's break-in oil change out of the way and the clutch is broken in I will be pulling the down pipe to weld in the wastegate piping and the turbo will be installed. Also I will be adding a couple of V-bands in the system for ease of future maintenance.






                      And a couple of exhaust note videos, If you have earphones use them because even though my iPotato has a crappy camera the microphones do a great job capturing the sound. Note how quick it revs!!!!





                      And I will leave you with a pic of the car sitting next to one of her friends. Sexy ladies!

                          The goal was to get the car running and put together for a charity photo shoot. The photo shoot was today and it benefits multiple animal adoption agencies but mainly the Pin-ups for Pitbulls organization and the Humane Society. I not only got the car running but I had a couple of days to drive it around and clean it up. The shoot was at the local BMW dealership and my car was one of 3 that were involved. Mine, a newer blue Alpina 7 series, and a Sunset red Z3 were the stars. I took a few pics with my iPotato and as soon as I get the actual pictures I will share them as well. And yes I know my hood is a little out of adjustment.

                          Here is a taste

                                I'm gonna bump this up and tell you great job so far on this build! I love it!

                                As much as I like the matte camo look I do think the car would look amazing in the gloss to match the bay.
