Andrew, did you use T-bolt clamps on all the connections or did you cheat in a few spots with worm gear clamps?
Also, do you have an online photo album of all the pictures of the piping & the install? If so, I'd like to take a look at it all. I really like how smooth it all turned out. My buddy made holes in the inner fender wells and brought the I/C piping in there. I didn't really care for it and wanted to route it differently. I'm thinking I may go the same route you did.
Excellent install btw...

Nice! You should get ride of the front plate compeltely. In WA state I've had mine in the jockey box for years now and not been hassled. Doh, I guess you already put holes in your bumper cover...

You should route the cone intake into the fender well...is there room?

Thanks VERY much! That's a big help right there. So you mainly used 90* smooth mandrel bends. Were these done by a local shop or purchased from a kit?

i bought the 90 degree bends from a friend but i cut, welded and painted them my self. so its 100% custom.
you can get good kits from ebat all you really need to do it this way is 4-90's and some stright pipe.

Yeah, are you officially sponsored by Mt. Dew? Is that why you have the Halo 3 edition bottle in you engine bay? That's sly advertising right there. Good job!

man i dig it all that looks great.
do you ever get problems between hard shifts cause of that BLV?
are you thinking of maybe doing a blow through MAF, cause you totally got the welding talent to do a great Blow through?

i thought about doing a post maf. but it runs good the way it is. im just going to go stand alone so i dont have to deal with the stupid maf and iac. im piggy back right now.
nope the car runs flawless under hard driving, even though shifts. might get a pop here or there but not that often.

If you are having problems with a BOV then something isn't setup correctly, because I ran one for quite a while and it never altered how the car ran...running hard or otherwise.
