Thanks Garnet, it was my 1st build, i made some mistakes but in the end it was a good build.
Working on my 2nd build will have pics later to come. Just got my fuel pump, injectors, utec yesterday. Working on a few more misc parts then I will be ready to put my Vortech on around April 18th. I'd like to go to IA in Atl but my car will be down at Forged that weekend for my install.

Thx Ummiamryan but I already have the map sensor as well. I will be boosted before thend of April. It won't be complete but its a start and i will only need a few more peices to round out the build before i step up to a forged block.
If there is a meet going on Nash or Franklin is fine with me. Franklin is somewhat out of my way though but def nicer and more of a meeting ground per say. Either day works for me as well.

Vortech V2-SQ with upgraded cog pulley and 3.1 pulley, 600cc Detswerks injectors, walboro pump, and Utec. This is just my initial setup. I do not have a full exhaust yet just stock so i'm aware the OEM cats will make my Vortech suffer but for my initial start this will be acceptable since my G is not a daily driver. Once i get some more $ saved back up i will be looking into a cat back, I already have test pipes left over from my 1st build. I'm still sitting on the fence on the plenum spacer +MRev2. I'm trolling the forums and can not get a 100% def answer on the specifics for a rev-up motor. Some people say the space does nothing for rev-up and others say they do, same goes for the MRev2 so i need to ask my tuner (Sharif). I will be getting a stage 1 fuel return as well. After that the motor is to my liking then i will start to focus on suspension and wheels then lastly a kit but that won't be until next yr.

On my last build i had a spacer but it was not a rev-up motor and i coud def tell a difference but the forums have mixed reactions for rev-ups and the use of a spacer.
You said you had a utec map sensor where you boosted previously or just tuned with bolt ons?
Oh and i look forward to meeting some of the other G's in the Nashville area, i used to attend more meets but after my 1st one was done i quit attending.

A new update* I will post pics this weekend and as i receive parts.
Just ordered HKS exhaust and 5/16th spacer. The only thing left i can think of is fuel return and i won't be able to have that ordered before I got to Forged.
Build is coming along fairly well. Spent more than anticipated but with this current setup i'm happy and now its time to refocus on saving money and looking ahead to future mods.
Current List:
Utec + Map senor
Walboro fuel pump
600cc Detswerks Injectors
Motordyne 5/16th spacer
Turbo XS test pipes
HKS cat back exhaust
Vortech V2-SQ w/upgraded cog & 3.1 pulleys
Everything should be on and ready to go by the end of April hope to see you all out for its debut.
