played 'in and out' with the engine about 20X over the past three days. Amazing how much stuff has to be moved/relocated/cut/etc!

Got the new boot to fix the leaking one installed on the CV joint (thanks Joe), and then got the front axles in on both sides. I hope to finish up the front swap this weekend (yup, again THIS weekend)

Wired the IC relay to ground so it is hotwired. Took the ECM feed (yellow wire) and wired it in to another relay so the ECM controls my lower IC fan on/off. Fiddly job but am pleased with the results.

Installed Front end Limiters to eliminate the Squat. Thanks to Jason (SYCLONE#1531) for the Info on them.

Finally got her all back together I installed a new pte turbo and rpm down pipe but the test pipe was to long so I have to wait and take it to the muffler shop tomorrow and I still have to connect my alky control

Picked up my manifolds and exhaust housing, they turned out great I think. Hope to get them back on soon and see how it all looks. But I'm going to remove the remote oil filter first.

And I'm almost happy with the led interior lights. Have a few more in order to try out and see how I like them.

And on the HVAC controls, if you are doing this find the led that has 3, not 1. I wasn't happy with how the single led looked so I ordered the 3, and it made a big difference in how the red/hot side looks.

Re: What did you do to your SyTy today? (part 2)

It does make a huge difference. I still want them to be brighter though on the cluster. The ones in the pic are a 20led, and i have 28led ones coming soon. The visor/map lights are ordered (6led), and i have a few different bulbs to try out on the rear view mirror ordered as well (8 and 6led). I have not been able to check my high beam indicator as my multifunction switch in the column is shot. Have a new one though.

The smaller turn indicator/check engine/brake lights are very hard to tell a difference that i can see. The check engine is the standard bulb, and it looks just as bright as any of the other leds on the turns/brakes.

Foot well lights are in, and i think they look ok for the time being. Might keep looking to see what else i can find, but they are plenty bright for just the feet area.

Did you try covering the inside of the cluster in a highly reflective material?

They have that tape that has almost a chrome-esk finish to it.

No, just changed the bulbs. That sounds like to much work... just get brighter leds.
