    Well, i got the alternator on and now the belt seems to be too big. I may have to check the diagram again but it should be the same routing as my gtp.

    So, alternator is on and going good. I also dropped from a 3.4 to a 3.3 and tuned it a bit today. Im seeing no kr on the 3.3. I do feel like i lost a bit of torque from adding headers but the top end pulls way better.

    Added a boost gauge. The whole idea behind my regal is a sleeper look. Stock wheels, nothing crazy done to the outside. A pillar pod would have defeated that purpose. I also started working on an area for my wideband to go. Ill be using a single din radio and mounting the gauges under the stereo.

    So more of an update, I did a bit of scanning today (about 2 hrs) at various Throttle positions and i am now 100% KR Free on a 3.3 pulley. I am pretty close to out flowing the stock MAF though.

    Yeah. i planned on another coat, but it started to sprinkle a bit so i put them on for now. I plan on a few coats of clear and polishing that. Ill probably repair the front bumper in the spring time.
