thanks! ordered some 4mm silicone hose so I can re-do the vac lines...going to wait for my MBC to come in to check the fittings, I'd imagine they'd be around 1/4 or 6mm same as the wastegate port...but I want to make sure first lol

you nailed it right on the head haha, wiring is the only thing about this car I don't enjoy doing.
Hopefully today I'll have more done so I can bring my fire extinguisher for the first "power hook up and crank attempt" haha, can never be too careful....?
side note, still waiting for most of my parents to come in still...intercooler, bov/flange, mbc, turbo inlet coupler...so as you can tell this is why the piping/cooler is not installed yet haha...friggggg, bov isn't a biggy, but the rest is holdin me back!-Jack

CAR CRANKS OVER! but doesn't start lol, not getting spark. So I added some grounds just in case, and no change. So tomorrow I'm going to make sure the engine harness is getting power, and then if it isn't...fix that issue, and if it's good...then time to diagnose lol.
All fuses are good too, engine fuses and interior fuses. Car cranks over real strong tho-Jack

Haven't checked for power at the harness yet, so that'll tell me lots tomorrow.
As for the fuel pump, yea it works fine maybe my lines are backwards? FPR line goes to the fuel filter, and the end rail to the one beside the fuel filter, correct?
anyways, I'm not too worried about it right now lol, I'm sure it's something easy to find and fix.
I still want to add more grounds to the engine as well, I only have one hooked up to the bracket where the ignition components are mounted. I need at least 5 more lol-Jack

fuel lines are fixed now. So I went to crank it over again, and it cranked fine for about 5 seconds then felt like the starter kept cutting out, so I tried again and it blew the main fuse lol. So I've replaced my main fuse, and I'm going to change the way I have power going to the starter, might be overloading the fuse now that it wants to start...idk lol.-Jack

So once I get some $$ I can finish the outlet pipe and get some coolant happening lol-Jack

I'm also thinking about making a lower hard pipe for the radiator, so I can get some more room for the outlet pipe, because idk how the eff you guys fit one in there, there's barely ANY ROOM!-Jack
