Default Slowly but surely

Well I'm still piecing parts together for the swap on my 96 SC300. My current parts list is:
2JZ-GTE-VVTI aristo
R154
prototyped fuel rail and injector adapters
Fuel lab Regulator
ID1000's
JDL auto single turbo manifold
Tein CS gold on the way

parts on order/to be ordered
Adaptronic 1280 ECU
Billet 67mm (non bb)
Wastegates
Harness
Various electronics/solenoids
Weldon pump
Filters
Intercooler setup
BOV

I figured I'd post up some pics of what I've got going on right now.

And here is a cutaway shot of the blue adapter you see the injector seated in on the manifold side.

Thanks guys! I'm really stoked to get her done. However I'm being meticulous about the build so it may take a bit. I'd rather build something once and do it right, than just throw it together.

That is the best way to do it. Hopefully it will come together the way you planned it or better. Definitely update with lots of pics like Tweak said.

I was super happy to pick up my turbo manifold today. I cannot express to you the quality of this thing, JDL auto works did a fantastic job and I couldn't be happier!

I'll post some more pics when I get it bolted up to the motor.
