Just got done with the last of the wiring. Motors still as apart as it was in that pic, no hoses or belts on it mainly. No downpipe. Got the last of the wiring done, thought WTH, might as well see if it will start.
Connected with the laptop for the first time, signature mismatch. So I downloaded the latest MS3X firmware and updated it. Loaded my totally-from-scratch MSQ.
Noticed that while the white LH main relay was clicking (I have it wired on the fuel pump relay output) the fuel pump wasn't running. So I had to rethink the way I had that wired. Along the way I realized that powering all the gizmos under the hood via the fuel pump output probably wasn't a good idea - at least notably not powering the DSM CAS like that - unless I start cranking during the priming pulse it will power down, then MS won't see any cranking and power it up again. Derp, I was thinking it might be nice to have the coils and injectors power down if the key was turned on and left on, but wiring the CAS in with them like that was not going to work.
So (temporarily), I just wedged that side of the double LH relay 'on' so the injectors, coils, and CAS would remain powered up. And gave it the first crank...

...and it sputtered and tried to fire up. It would fire and run for about 2 seconds, then cut off. Obv. some fuel values are way off. But I was incredibly relieved to see all the new injector wiring and sequential coil wiring working right off the bat. Woot!
Then my wife (alerted by the down-pipe-less bursts of noise) came out to see if she could laugh at my expense, and said something's dripping. Oh yeah, I was going to hook the turbo oil drain back up when I went under there to put the downpipe back on.
All in all, I'm going to claim this as GREAT SUCCESS! /Borat
Still waiting on a box with some shorter alt and A/C belts from FCP.
I noticed the Aeromotive FPR has a sort of moaning sound to it.
