Been busy for past few months, converted from 5spd getrag to powerglide.
Hard wired in the iq3 , tach adaptor, dedicated map sensor for water/meth.
Ditched innovate o2 setup, eas causing my hair to fall out, the most unreliable gauge i have ever seen.
so installed FAST o2 wideband with after market gauge, no more 60 sec delay before o2 starts working.
Installed new shifter, had to hack stock conole but everything fits, and looks like all my wiring is finally done.
Tune is a mess, and needs to be redone to suit new trans.
Will post some pics when i get the time

Found out i have a leaking heater core. I sorted suspected it but a fluorescent tinge to the evap condensation has confirmed it. Its not bad enough to worry about and the cost will be probably 300 bucks by the time i add 1.5hrs of labor to fit the new core, so it can wait until winter.

Yeah, you provided a link to that for me before Pete. I might just wack it in my favourites so I have it ready. Chopping the pipes is how I can have it done for 1.5hrs labour. Although not sure if the rad tech will be happy to replace it this way. Might have to replace it myself.
