Last season I was having huge issues with my act2600 and it slipping. I was nearly maxing out my turbo (54lb/min), over running my 2g maf, and having a hard time getting the car into gear at high RPM. The car was parked sometime in September and plans to upgrade the clutch was put into action. Over the next 5 months changing the clutch turned into replacing my front mount, upgrading intake manifolds, installing AEM, getting all new piping fabbed up, and much more. Car still has A/c, powersteering, spare tire, factory leather seats, and cruise (which works awesome with the twindisk).

New items installed:
PTE 6152E
TABfab Custom 2.5in intercooler piping
TABfab 3in CAI
New Front mount core (will be upgrading later to a 4inch core)
Tial BOV
AEM EMS (all sensor, GM boost, AIT, 5 BAR)
Quartermaster Twin disk
Polyurethane mounts
Isuzu Slave
FRH Intake Manifold
1g TB
TABfab installed Vband flange in my DP for easier install
Relocated the battery to the rear
Relocated the Fuse box into tire well
All high quality Taylor Wire with cutoff switch (not mounted yet)
All gauges Removed from the interior
New fender liners


Don't mind the bolt on the turbo. I just recently (sunday) bought a new PTE turbo since that housing got fucked this weekend.

Looks a lot better. But now that open space is begging for a water/meth setup!

Um, I might. Only thing that might conflict is if I win an auction I'm watching right now. If I win it I'll be heading to Indiana to get another DSM. Damn gas prices are out the roof and getting 10mpg in the truck doesn't help. I also wouldn't feel comfortable NOT towing my car up there.
