Unfortunately I won't be making the trip :( I'm super bummed but it's just not in the cards.

Huh? You don't want to show off all of your hard work? I was looking forward to seeing it finally "done"

Just have your brother drive it down in your place.... :P

I did have a turbo failure due to me having massive boost leaks among other things. Unfortunate for sure but I did make the 7 hour drive home just fine.

For now I'm putting the stock k24 back on, fixed boost leaks and will drive it. Also have the new calipers installed. The brackets will need a small revision but we are hopeful that they will work nicely after the revision.

I'll be honest I'm a bit tired of working on the car and just want to drive it. Almost the last three months have been spent with this thing on stands and it's time for some miles.

Stay tuned :)
