Well CL'ers its complete. Started up and ran for @ 1hr just let it idle and topped off the Supercharger fluid. Checked for leaks and retighten all the hardware.
Then rev'ed to redline alot. Haven't driven it yet b/c I didn't want to take it off the jack stands. Still need to install the front bumper so tommrow will be test drive day.

I can tell you it sounds NASTY!! Mean as hell! I was suprised how much the exhaust note changed also. There will be no mistake when I roll up that this car is superchaged. I'll post up after the test drive tommrow.

Can't wait to see the piping. Looks like both of the SC's are loud huh? haha Mines sounds like a huge *** vacuum

Also, if you're going to drive it for a bit before a tune I'm guessing it's still running on the stock ECU, it'll take a couple days before the car actually drives nice.
