Lighter = Faster (N/A build thread #2)

No real updates since last time. Got the intake and exhaust manifolds coated by Swain Tech since they sit so close to each other:

I'm going to put a layer of high-temp. paint over the TBC on the intake manifold.

Kid #2 was born back on 5/15 so not much time to work on anything. I did manage to find a couple hours yesterday to work on patching up the stock front wiring harness. Since I've removed so many wires I have to redo just about every stock splice. Replacing the crimp splices and covering with heat shrink tubing looks much nicer than covering everything with electrical tape...
