Really? I think it looks great, I'm actually kind of bummed know one would ever be able to see it. And it serves a functional purpose because it will never leak and can be easily taken apart. If your talking about the silver an lines my supplier only sold black in ten foot sections. If I were going to run a catch can I would have done it. Either way you have your right to you opinion but of it's not constructive criticism I prefer if you left it out of my thread. Thanks.

I started working on the car again. I wired up my ignitor, put my fan/shroud on, and installed my new radiator. I also purchased a aristo power steering resevoir and mounted that up. I still have a lot to do but ill be knocking out what I can as fast as possible. I got one piece of plumbing finished and will be drilling my 2.5 inlets off of my intercooler tonight and installing 3 inch inlets.

Thanks for all the positive comments guys! I got my FMIC back last night with the 3 inch inlets/outlets welded on. Ordered my plugs today, Ill have to put them in later. Its coming down to the final stretch. I still have to figure out what I am going to do about an alternator. My sc altenator plug hits one of the coolant lines for the turbo. The alternator that came with the swap has a plug on the back side which would work but I dont have a pigtail. I might have to get a US TT alternator and use that. I also have to figure out what mufflers I want to use, if any, and get all of the bends for it. Ill start ordering that stuff today. I also figured out how I am going to use the twins. Im pretty much getting rid of all the electronic valves, minus my aem boost controller, and am going to run them manually. I talked to an old local tuner that had done this swap in the past and he had his SC running 11.20's with the twins setup the same way. That car was an auto with a LSD though.
