Actually its over the past week but:
1. Installed fog light brackets from Rentz along with lights. Fit great. Now the front of the truck dosen't look so...gaping.
2. Have code59 up and running. Been working only on idle, cruise some pick-up but haven't made a pull yet under boost. Still can't connect to Autotune. Doing something wrong. Will find it.
3. Datamaster is up and running also. I really think all the re-wiring helped.
4. Now have my chip in a remote location. Used Moates chip extender (?) and its now located on the package tray under glove box. Everythings put away and can hook up and datalog or make changes on 59 in a snap. Had to cut a slot for the ribbon cable to come thru and didn't really want to but its hidden and it needed to be done. But the best part is now I have the best anti-theft protection. Pull the chip and take it with me if I have to leave the Ty for any length of time. They can get in but the can't drive it away unless they have a chip. Have pics will try and get them posted.
Thats it. Winters comming, doing what I can to get ready. Dan.

Where'd you get it? I looked on Moates site for something like that, but didn't find anything.
I gotta run aftermarket chip for the supercharger, but have to put stock one in for emission testing. Pain the patooty to change it.

You can look on my photobucket page for the parts and where I mounted them. PM me if you need details.

damn, and it's always fun to hope that the truck magically fixed itself. Then reality sets in and it most likely just ran out of fluid....

Re: What did you do to your SyTy today? (part 2)
I started with putting her up on the jack stands and removing the front wheels. then I replaced the cap, rotor and added a new MSD coil, MSD 6AL, Accel 8.8 wires. new turbo to innercooler pipe, changed the oil, put in new spark plugs and then I put the wheels back on and put her back on the ground.
AND THEN... for some strange reasion. I removed the cross tube and stuck my fingers in the turbo... 1/4" play in and out & about 1/8" side to side. f#$%. now its back on the jacks and after alot of added WORK that i did not want to do. The turbo is out. I should have it back together tomorrow or the next day, depending on how quick i can get the parts. looks like all i need is a rebuild kit, new 20g wheel and a shaft and balance. Better yet, hows next week sound.

Its under chips and sockets. Chip extender 1.0. $20.00. You will need an emulation cable also. $9.00. Don't get the short one. Dan.

Re: What did you do to your SyTy today? (part 2)
:lol: Pretty much. It has a few leaks by the oil filter relocation and the turbo oil feed line at the block. There is another more serious leak that I haven't pinpointed. It's either the rear main seal or the oil pan gasket. I can't tell until I pull the inspection cover this weekend. How exciting.... :banghead:

Re: What did you do to your SyTy today? (part 2)
Damn! Have you learned how to control that launch or are you looking at a bar setup? Did it inflict any damage to the front, Im sure it's built for that but looks like it came down pretty hard. Rear bumper cover has a BooBoo im sure. Bad ass Ty John

Chassis dyno tune with Alex, thanks man. Found out torque convertor is blowing through. Oh well. Not very impressive numbers, but will try again at a later date after rebuild of TC. 315 hp and 375 tq at wheels @ 18 psi.

Re: What did you do to your SyTy today? (part 2)
Installed turbo blanket Tuesday. Took it for a drive and from work. Tested temps on the upper IC. Very surprised by the difference. Before the turbo blanket the upper ic was usually in the mid 130's from the inlet to the throttle body. It is now between 100 and 112. Granted the outside temps today are about 30 degrees below the summer daytime highs in the upper 90s. I am sure both have something to do with the temp changes at the IC.
While checking temps, I finally figured out why I have the perpetual antifreeze smell. I found a leak on an IC pump connection. Just another thing on the list to fix.

Re: What did you do to your SyTy today? (part 2)
is it bad when you can run from 65mph to 95mph while not moving from 4500rpm?!?!! get that converter looked at and it will be much nicer! his numbers were on a Mustang 550A AWD dyno...similar to the one I was looking to buy a year ago.

I can control the launch perfectly coming out at 10 Lbs of boost as shown here...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3ILAV_x_l4
In the previous bumper run I was attempting to come out at 12 Lbs. I tightened down the front shocks a few more clicks, but not enough to hold it. I could slow the lift down a couple of ways... more clicks on the front shocks, shorten the limiters a couple of inches, change the rear springs to a stiffer set. The problem is that all of these will also start to limit the weight transfer farther down track. I need the truck to be able to transfer decent weight farther down track so I added a set of bars to the back to control it at the line keeping the good weight transfer intact.
I had no damage anywhere... it looks like it comes down harder than it actually does. I may just clear coat over the bumper marks...
