An update for those following... The CARLI kit install has been tentatively delayed for the under hood install purposes, which to me are more important at this point in time. The level kit and OUO's can wait until the performance parts have all been installed. As far as the under hood/performance parts are concerned, all of the pieces are in the hands of the installer and I am ready to bring the truck up to finally kick this thing off!

There are now some awesome new photos for you all to see. As you will see below, there are photos the Hi-Power turbo, with 68mm Billet Precision wheel, from Elite (same charger that Gary has), and this is out of the box before powder and ceramic coatings. There are also photos of some of the VGT system components that have already been unboxed. I opted to have all of the piping polished and you guys can use the photos to compare the raw finish to that of a polished finish.

I do have more photos coming, so stay on board ;)


Stockpile of boxes, none of the other parts are mine in this photo.

Just wanted to give Jcain a shout again for the awesome deal! The manifolds came super fast and were in good condition, and now they (and the hot side of the charger) are off to get ceramic coating :D

Just got some more parts back from the auto body technician...

I had my Platinum grille completely blacked out and also had the emblem done and clear coated. I asked for my fender emblems to be color matched to the truck in Tuxedo Black, and I also requested a Ford 2014 Red for the bordering of the lettering on the fender emblems. All in all the parts came out nice!

(Letters are actually darker red than you can see in the photo)

(You can see a little red in the smaller letters but it is currently being blacked out as we speak. As you can also see, they pop in the sunlight!)

Thanks Gary! How does that turbo look? Brings back memories of when you received yours, doesn't it? Lol. I can't wait for it all to come together!

Eventually, it will be done and I know that it will be done right!

I sold the Rock Star wheels and had a set of Novakanes put on. No other information. I will say that I hope to pick the finished truck up sometime before next Monday.
