2013 Sequoia Limited to TRD FAUX build now with BOOST!

Wife likes the new Bronco & loves Robin's egg blue.

10:30 appointment in the morning, assuming the numbers are right, we'll come home in the Bronco. I'm torn, not a huge fan of Ford.

 

Progress.

 

Shit got real.

lol

 

Why does Ford include a Mountain Dew dispenser?




Also,

 

Cabinets wandered in at 7pm last night.

But, they are going in now & the kitchen will be 90% done end of day, waiting for an eta on the quartz countertops.

 

All that is left is painting, hardware install & the new reverse osmosis filter install. 0& the quartz countertops that are coming 7/19

 

Closer!

 

A week from Friday, Quartz countertops & done.

 

The washer wasn't working, the hot water valve was 97% open, no hot water came out. After opening it, it's working.

Another of my fabulous inheritance, 10 cans of stainless steel cleaner.

 

Got The Innovate multi gauge. It does AFR, fuel pressure, temp & meth %
Here's how it will look once I get the fittings I need to install it.





I put blue film in mine to match my AFR/Boost gauge.

 

Really wanted to install the new gauge, has not been under 93, was already 100 when I wanted to get started.

 

Really odd rain mess.

 

Gauge is in, stole the passenger side O2 and am having the bung installed on the driver side, the AFR/Boost gauge will get that sensor (figured it made sense to have them on the right side)



Thanks to @PolishedTRD I got the AFR to read in A/F

 

Hopefully 3rd time is the charm.

Dropped the Tree off again to have the valve cover sealed, #1 spark plug tube has been leaking since they "fixed" the cam tower seal in April of '23. They "fixed it again in April .



This was interesting.

 

Pics from the 3rd valve cover reseal.

They think there is an irregularity in the spark plug tube.

 

Noticed those stickers earlier this year when walking around a dealership. I like em

 

Dealer called, it has been on 2 15-minute drives & is free of oil! WHEW!

Going to get it within the hour!

 

The tree has returned, I choose to believe it is not leaking.

 

This just came. It's not cheap but works great!

Countertop day!

 

99.999% done!

 

Z3 aux fan & mount/harness.

 

2 things"

1) ceramic seal your stainless. You're welcome.
2) Ninja makes a fantastic new 9-in-1 device to replace the toaster oven with. It folds 90* against the wall when not in use. (We had the same toaster oven).

Congrats on all the things.

 

This?

$170 Ninja Foodi SP101/FT102CO Digital Fry, Convection Oven, Toaster, Air Fryer, Flip-Away for Storage, with XL Capacity, and a Stainless Steel Finish (Renewed)

https://www.amazon.com/Ninja-Flip-A...e38-4ced-b2f1-e33d5ca49b97&pd_rd_i=B07XF4HW8G

If so it is good?

Does it toast bread well?

Just ordered this,

$100 Breville Bit More Toaster 4 Slice BTA730XL, Brushed Stainless Steel

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00COMHBT0?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

 

It's toasts things just fine once you realize you can adjust slice count and darkness. Took us a minute to realize the level of detail it has, but the space savings is huge when not in use.

For the record: I'm not knocking anything Breville (I have one of their espresso machines).

 

The oven next to the Kuerig is a Breville, I like it alot.

I'll order the Ninja, & return the one we decide against, getting space back is huge.

Thanks

 

Just trying to help. Ymmv.
