It has been a while since an updates, I have done a few little things, but nothing huge.
In regards to the hesitation I tried MAF cleaner and running a can of UEC through. That didn't fix it, so I tried unplugging the front O2 sensor, one CEL later, no more hesitation. I bought another Denso O2 sensor and it has been smooth sailing since.
I also had a small coolant leak from the turbo after sustained hard driving/going up large hills. I decided I was sick of that, so I bought some AN fittings and hose and made a new line.
I just tied it into the heater hose for the time being, but a custom header tank will be made at some point and have AN fittings.
I have been meaning to get a better dashcam for ages, and I jumped on a 30% off sale to grab a BlackVue camera setup.
I have been very happy with it and it is far more convenient and reliable than my old cam.
I also bought a Wangan H brace ages ago that I finally got around to fitting.

I also bought a Raceseng shift knob, and after more than a month waiting for shipping it arrived and I am very happy with it.
