First day of work is in the books! Got the radiator, tmic, charge pipe, intake, intake manifold, tgv’s, and egr removed. Intake valves walnut blasted, an spark plugs replaced. Still got quite a bit of work to go, but I definitely got off to a good start minus my harbor freight media blaster clogging up on me and slowing me down a bit but I got through it. Most of the sexy stuff should get done tomorrow; Headers, turbo/inlet, high flow cat, and as much else as time will allow. Feels so good to finally reach this point in the build!
