rewiring of the fuel pumps, these will now run staged through the Haltech Elite 2500, previously they were run both simultaneously full time, but resulted in the fuel being heated over a period of time, having them staged (1 full time and 1 staged at a certain boost/rpm) eliminates the need for a fuel cooler

loved making this thing! antiroll bar mount chassis brace and stiffener and coolant line for the heater core all in one!
