I know right? I don't seem to remember this as part of the upgrade? Out of curiousity, how many miles is on RICER now?

Nope...looking like Agency Power Control Arms to me...
STM...How do you like those AP Control Arms?? Also is that your own or who's lightweight center member is that??
Also I see your still using a ported 65mm stock TB, correct? Why not upgrade to something larger, since you are using a reducer coupling to go from the IC piping to TB??

Yes they are the agency power arms

They fit nice and seem like they will do what they are intended to do. Have not driven with them yet or aligned the car yet.

We are using the ported TB still. It has been proven to work at the HP level we are shooing for and Its one less thing to have a problem with.

Coming along, got the timing belt on and the strut bar, and working on getting the coolant lines routed using the ProClassic hose.
We'll be at SEMA all week, but when we come back, the transfer case should be here and we can get the turbo on and downpipe and radiator...
It's coming!!

So the Transfer case came in this morning from TRE... The turbo kit is on and mounted, the rest of the cooling lines are done, intercooler piping is made and the exhaust is almost welded and finished! Should just be a few more things...
And here's a video I took this morning:

We'll keep you updated! Shouldn't be long NOW!

Can't wait for good news!
