Pettit is quite good at what they do. Your car is in good hands.

Just ordered a map sensor from Japan as mine mysteriously disappeared. Should start after that (ive said this a million times, I know, but if it doesn't start after this, I will be at a loss, everything is hooked up and checks out)

I think it will be fine man! I've been following this thread and it looks like you've been very thorough about everything.

As you can see, the engine bay looks much cleaner although I lost my fusebox cover on the journey to Pettit (I don't suppose anybody has one lying around?). I'll need to have my fabricator come back and reweld the intercooler piping...again...after its been powdercoated...ughh. and I'm still looking for some viable solution for radiator hoses

Big projects have big roadblocks. As the alcoholics like to say. One step at a time

Well, still no injector pulse. I spoke to Cam at Pettit again and all signs point to a missing ground in the ecu. He is looking through his diagrams to figure it out and said if worst comes to worst, he will personally come to the shop and fix it for me....that is the definition of quality service

Haha, crazy indeed, I try to stay calm and remind myself that "this is supposed to relieve stress" but it still gets me worked up every now and then. Not today though, today is a good day, because today, Cam Sr. From Pettit Racing came 40 miles to fix a wiring issue, and did it in about an hour and a half. The kicker is that it still doesn't run. We have injector pulse now though and cam says that the injectors are probably stuck, so he will be sending out a new set tomorrow(free of charge) and it should start and run......it better, if it doesn't. I will pull my hair out

Two years ago I didn't believe that this swap should ever be completed but obviously I was wrong. Don't give up. This will be a very unique drivetrain once finished.
