its alive

Today was D-day last few parts (thanks again mioke) went in, I sorted out an intake set up and bolted down the t-clamps. Pushed it out of my garage filled her up with water and turned it over took a second but it fired right up. Runs pretty smooth for no tune yet found a small power steering leak but still managed a test ride around the block. Gonna sort out the leaky tommorow put a basic map back on it for the break in/ shake down. Its been almost 2 years this june so I almost shead a little tear as it rumbled to life.

Here's the steal me list
Stroked 2.5
Forged crank cp pistons
Wrx heads with a PP and coat job
Custom cut and ground cam shafts w/oversized valved
Rotated gt40 w/tial 44mm ewg
Running a utec for em w/avcr
Should roady dyno on pump near 400/380 we shall see soon as it breaks in I will be hitting the back roads with my custom wideband.
Thanks to all that helped
I want to personal thank my sponsors for all the support really means a lot to me look for me at the local runs next week
