Im so excited!!!

I bought this vehicle from a guy that had no idea why it wouldnt spark.

Long story short it was the ecu.

I payed $2,000 for the car!

mods:

TRE fully built tranny.
Comp Cams
AEM Adjustable cam gears
SS valve with new springs and retainers.
ACT 2600 clutch
Fidanza Flywheel
3" down pipe
Poly motor and tranny mounts
Rebuilt motor.
EGR Block off

Now That I have it running it has a weird noise when I get above 3k. I will get a vid of the noise.

the fuel is old as hell so I know the comp is pulling time. (havent ran it hard)

Turbo (14b) smokes and I can hear it spool but doesnt pull. Yes I have done a boost leak test.

Im going to put my manny with 16 g on it tomarrow.

and that rust spot and crack in bumper are the only bad spots.

Today I chaged lower and upper rad hoses with new coolant. Changed plugs bpr6es gapped at .028.

put my uicp on with greddy knock off bov on. Cleaned the intercooler.

Changed the oil Royal Purple 10w-30 with new filter.

Tomarrow im putting my boost gauge, radio, Turbo timer, Fuel filter, boost controller (stock boost.) and o2 housing.

I really dont know how to get that fuel out of the tank so I can put fresh fuel in it.
