Yea, it doesnt look like its going to be running this weekend. I just opened the box of the pump and after comparing it to my current one have come to the conclusion that they sent me the wrong oilpump. I already called and the guy wanted me to send pics but either way he wont be able to send one till monday. Iv gotten alos of stuff from extream psi and had alot of good expierences but this is the second time Iv recieved the wrong thing. Hell it even had a crack in it and marks as if it had been installed befor. ...Im pissed.
I sent a happy email with lots of pics:D .

So I started working on it today(morning) as it is my day off. Soon enough the ups truck pulled up. Im glad to say I recieved the right pump this time,lol. Upon swapping everything over I cam to the point where I was swapping out the balance shaft parts and was unable to find the stubby shaft from the kit?? It turns out the stubby came loose and was sitting in the bottom of the pan and the bolt and gear where just hanging out in the pump. Crazy shit!! So its pretty much all back together to the point where the timming needs to be tentioned, put the cover back on along with the other belts. She "should" be running again soon...

So over the weekend I finally hit 1k on the new motor . Also since my old coils were f'ed I decided that I can either spend 13x.xx dollars for a new set or 100 and pick up one of AJ's cop setups. I got the cop. It turned out great! I beat on the car on the way back with no missing or anything. Im also running a 6bolt bottom end so I needed the plug wires swapped around, and well he made it happen. On with a pic.

Im going to chill, do some tuning, up the boost, and learn how to launch a fwd car. The next time I go out will probably be the next midnight madness.

Update: So yesterday I decided,"Hey, I should blow this turbo up!" Or rather the turbo made the decision befor me. Not sure what to do yet. Put the 14b back on, rebuild the 16g, or go bigger. Mind you this is on my GST.
