Really happy how it turned out:

First track outing with the cage was a success, but no PB.
Hit up Orlando Speed World:
Weighed at track:
Pretty empty due to the rain scare:
Boost controller was not adding dome pressure as requested, but still did well for 19 psi (first pass shifted 1st to 3rd 🤣):

Had a great time at LS Fest East! Great to see some fellow Gbodies out there.
Stopped at Bucee's for the first time:
Cage is 8.50 certified now:
In the lanes (out of place much??):
Car hooked up every time, pulled both wheels every time as well:
Was still having issues adding dome (still running around 20 psi boost, DA was 1600-2500 all weekend). We took apart the driver's side WG and it did not seem happy (time for new ones):
Holley did a write up about me and the car:
Great pit crew (Dad, Brother, buddy Josh):
Photo-op with some cool dudes (Nate aka Dr. Tuneemall, dyno tuned my car):
I dialed in a 9.75 index while there. I won the first race heads up, but lost the second round due to breaking out!
Time to take the car apart again and make it faster!!!

Small update: taking a little break from all the car stuff since I thrashed so hard to get ready for LS Fest.
The VSR 78/75 did a great job, but its time to upgrade:
Forced Inductions 88/102 T6 turbo 😍
The turbo weighs nearly 50 lbs so I'll mount with this Maven Mount:
After some planning and test fittings, she's in there:
Redoing the entire hotside with stainless steel and new waste gates to boot. Can't wait to rip this thing 🙈
