I think the car as a whole looks great.

Well its alive!!!

Got the wiring issue worked out, ending up being something mindless i didnt think about and was an easy fix. Then it came to start it and apparently my motor liked to make combustion when u first put the key in, resulting in a mortor canon sound, followed by smoke filling my garage, and my tail pipe looking like it just took a fat rip.
Thanks to Kyle (DDS Performance) he was able to work the glitches out from my previous tuner. Got a nice healthy crank and first turnover. Motor sounds nice and healthy, trying to figure out how to load my video on, but blackberry is being a PITA.

Figured the video out......Sorry for sound quality, the blackberry audio is weird

project s13k-First start up	Small | Large

[F24cS13]

Well it looks like tomorrow is the day. Got all the little things fixed up today. Started the car and drove it around the block for the first time in 7 months. Needless to say it was an awesome experiencce to pull it out of the garage after that long.

Car got a little hot when i went around the block, i later realized my coolant was a bit low after i busted a pipe off and spilt it everywhere. Tomorrows plans include uhaul and distilled water lol. Will post #'s when i get them but might be a delay on the dyno sheet because it has to be emailed to me.

Whoa, nervous is putting it lightly.

Dyno Results are in.
Tune went smooth and the car runs great. Power is what i wanted. I wanted reliability above anything. HUGE thanks to Kyle for all the help with this project from start to finish.
Thanks to Chance, Chris, Dave and Vegas Drift for all the help during these long months. Look forward to vd21!

May be off by a few. Will post graph when emailed.

Sick man .... Cant wait to see it ....

How much boost you running?  My buddy here in town has put together a few 500whp on stock motor cars so you got plenty of safety. 400 on 91 should be no worries.  Up the boooost!!!

[s13yaobling]

280hp is pretty respectable. You should have plenty of power to put that car sideways. 400 hp a lil much. id keep it around 300. its more then enough. lookin good man.

Exactly, 300~  Is more than enough and a very comfortable hp range for most goals, Not until you place at nationals should you be trying to extract more power and that should come along with sponsors as well, reliability and seat time above all else.

Running only 9psi...
The reason its low is because of my pistons, they dont take much more then 350hp. This was basically a base  tune. Once i swtich to e85 i will yeild a bit more but for me personally this is more then enough. The car wont stay straight in third gear. I hit power at 3500rpm. Idk for me, this is enough power.

Glad it finally runs

.... The car wont stay straight in third gear. ...

Time for wider tires

[F24cS13]

That might be the case hahaha......Ik the tire pressure is like 45psi or more. So im sure taking some air out might help a bit. My alignment is beyond messed up and needs some serious fixing. Still have A lot to get used to, considering ive never even driven the car.

Still have the seat and shifter to fix. Everyone fits in my car fine but me,wtf! lol.
Nice to finally walk out and know the car is done. Much different state of mind when ur project comes to a close lol......

Thanks to Matt for the quick videos of the tune.....
