Well, again I managed to f*ck up a brand new Odyssey battery by leaving the door open overnight. Drained it to 6v and wouldn't charge. I did a little research and came upon this video by Optima. So for all those who've killed an AGM and can't get it to charge, here's your reward for reading my stupid build thread:

It's now fully charged again.

So much to do, and no time. Need to take a vacation to finish it.



weld exhaust/dumptube

make switch panel

remove heater/motor

permanently mount haltech

install boost controller and wire it up

wire fan

fab seat brackets

make traction bars

mount golden eagle vacuum manifold and map sensor

fab a permanent cop mounting system





My new seat weighs a whopping 12lbs. Need to purchase the passenger side to stay in FIS class. With both seats swapped, I saved 60lbs over stock! I'm hoping to be around 2300-2400lbs after I'm done lightening up the car. Carpet, dash, and paneling need to stay.

Got home today and made this. Not my best welds, but they're mine!



Going back out to do the wastegate dumptube.

Done with the exhaust for now. It's enough to tune with. I'll extend it and paint later.

There will be a little more to that.



And there's actually 3 things done today. I just got done mounting the Haltech behind where the radio was and the new switch plate will go. Need to wire it back up now and get the wideband wired to it.
