When I did mine I just did it with the bumper off of the car, much easier to access everything that way. I'd rather do a process with a little more time taken IF it means I'm not going to be frustrated the whole time.
Makes sense, if I ever get it ill probably just remove the bumper and install that way. Work smarter not harder and all that.

that and I can't be trusted with power tools, so there was a chance of drilling through my intercooler that I just didn't want to take

Down to cold side piping tomorrow and this things done as far as fabrication goes.

There’s a bunch of odds and ends that need tied up, but the owner will take care of that. Then after 1,000 break in miles on the T56 Magnum it’ll be time to dyno tune.

They are definitely the same flavor of quality. The problem with nuclear is that just saying the phrase 'nuclear safety related' to a supplier will cause the price of a pump, valve, etc to multiply 10x for a binder of traceability paperwork. I think the difference with aviation is that everything is just expensive to begin with, no common cheaper industry like nuclear.
For sure. The cradle to grave traceability for the “q” level parts adds a tremendous premium.

I have the Aerofabb v2 splitter and had to put down a piece of plywood so I can get in my garage.
Yeah I’d need some custom wood work to smooth out the angle from the sidewalk to the driveway….

Few pics from KW that my dampers should be ready to pick up next week. Converted from the 2021-2024 TCR spec back to 2017-2020 spec including 2way to 4way, longer bodies, stiffer springs, re-valving done along with a few other tweaks.

really though those look fantastic, is all the adjustment external on the KWs? My yellows are internal adjustment on the rears, which is mildly annoying because that means having to completely remove them to make changes.
