Thanks Trav,
Its getting there. Still suffering from the delay on the engine build but pretty focused on having it ready for MTC2016. I will run the car on a few test days before MTC but MTC will be the first key event for the car. Certainly looking forward to driving in 2016. Chances are, I will compete in a few round of iRace, a few Eastern creek practice days and a few track days. Wakefield 300 is a possibility but depends on timing, co driver and team to help make it happen.
The exhaust is completed with 1 3/4 to 1 7/8@700mm, velocity merge collectors, 600mm secondaries with a 3" cannon. I suspect it will be a little loud with lots of fire!
Manifold is ready for pick up on Saturday then driving to Melbourne where Troy will perform his magic.

After a usually large amount of pain, the car is almost ready.
The wiring was completed in Melbourne then all the software and glitches were solved by WideMR. He is clearly of legend status and deeply thank him for his support
After a few days in Melbourne, the car has been delivered to Adelaide for final prep before tuning. Still not without its glitches but did manage to fix enough to actually start the engine.
Very pleased with results, sounds just incredible.
Full run in and tune will be in a few days.

Steve.
It has sure been a long road for you.  Must be well worth it though now.  Congratulations.
Looking forward to seeing you in 15 days time.  Eric and I are still borrowing each others stuff trying to get his ready for MTC 2016.   It hasn't fired yet.
I think I have mine almost ready now.    Cheers   Doug.

All good mate.
 
Just to clarify to others, I did not do any of the wiring, i only did some initial programming and firmware updating of the racepak dash logger, smartwire power module and haltech ecu etc.
 
Glad to see it started and runs ok, does this mean that the base map was loaded in the ecu ok?
 
Once its all running ok i can do a little more setup with the dash, seeing as we wernt getting any CAN messages or data from the ecu until 1 minute before we left that night, far out, annoying to find faults when everything is wired to the diagrams and pinouts correctly, having to make an educated decision that it should be done another way, ahh dear.
