Well, had a few issues on Saturday. Wideband failed, no big deal. Bigger deal was the Del Sol decided to do a reinactment of the exxon valdez on my Garage floor. Turns out my budget oil line off the back of the block developed a leak. So, I ripped the engine out tonight to get that replaced with a better oil line. Unfortunatlly the only way to get to it is to pull the engine or intake manifold. The first option is the easiest if you ask me. I am also going to take this time to replace the tranny as it was acting up some on me. Gonna swap the SI trans out for the DX. Should give me a little more time in gear.

I did however get the Holset bolted on and hung it in there to do some trial fitting. Looks like it is going to fit perfectly. I will need to swap the fan out for a slim fan but that is not a big deal. Here is how it sits right now. Enjoy.
