Can you put up some side pics? I really like the aspec sides but haven't been sold just yet on the front and back personally. Would like to see how yours looks. Congrats on the house!

I stopped paying attention to the TL stuff after I saw the LS3 powered RX7. That has to be a fun car, what does it weigh with the V8?
About the cams, it sounds like they clean up around 1,200rpm, is that correct? Did they come with stiffer springs and better retainers/keepers? Have you raised the rev limit yet to take advantage of the cams yet? Last, I know you've lost some of that off idle power but does it feel like anything was lost on the low end once it cleans up? I know it's hard to tell by the seat of the pants since the extra kick up top can make the low end feel like its lacking when it may not be. Sorry for the questions but there are very few aftermarket cam swaps around here. It's something I might do when I do the timing belt if I could run cats with them but I can't with CA emissions testing. The thought of putting the cats back on every couple years and hoping they don't burn up while they're on there and also that they're able to clean up the idle emissions enough is too much for me on my daily driver. I've considered cams for a while now just to see if it might lower my low rpm/light throttle pinging

It only misfires at idle. I'm tuning on the 24th and we will see from there.

Should of multi qouted I'll get yelled at again but I have ADD so bad.....
pertaining to the Aspec sides. It made a huge difference, Im debating on even bothering with front and rear now. I love it! I wouldn't have it any other way right now, if your debating on it, DON"T!

meh heres another one, I literally just started messing around the other day and ended up fabbing and mocking everything up lol. Spent about 3 slow enjoyable hours after a softball tournament but now I know what parts I need and ordered them yesterday 
I plan to pull the piping off and paint it all black I'm just fabbing it up don't judge the dirty garage or car! I just moved!

Na....Theres not much to update, its half done already which only took about 3-4 hours, I just am waiting on some small parts and gaskets, and oil feed but besides that I just need to install the exhaust manifolds and then mock up the exhaust, I don't get on here to much anymore. I'm going to run low boost until next winter and pull the motor and build it for boost. I also want to see how I like the car with some boost and see if everything goes smoothly on 5-8 lbs. Then build the head and internals.

Looks good, it's nice to see how many turbo TLs are around here.
One thing though, and this is not directed at the OP specifically, why are you guys doing ported and polished runners and bigger cams? The gains are minimal at best and the cams if not ground for the turbo setup can hurt spool and power. The bone stock intake tract, basically a stock engine except for forged internals with lower compression will make an easy 900+whp. I just don't see the need for the additional money spent and the potential reliability problems for mods that an extra psi of boost will easily cover.
