I know, i know.. couldnt keep my mouth shut. I probably jinxed it.

If i can't break into the LOW 12's my car may just end up in the canal at the end of the track @ PBIR.

Lots of progress. "Too much" in fact.
Ran out of nitrous.
Final tuning will happen on Monday.
I have the car right now (no bottles); running perfectly (as it should!)

This turned out to be a larger endeavor than I, and the shop expected (which is okay, part of the game; and there have been no major issues)... I also made a few changes (upgrades) half-way through the install which threw the install date off.

I should be good-to-go for the Miami Lexus/Supra Show-off on the 19th. After that event, i'll start publically posting more information (and pictures) about the install.
