Okay, I have the photos for the How to for SS braided lines but I can't find the SD Card that has them on it, but I got a new door panel for the passenger side got rid of the ls400 metal interior door handles and got the stock black plastic again, Fix my door regulator and got another auto shifter bezel to modify all for $60 at a Junk Yard.
I finalized the line up for the manifold side 3.5" intercooler piping to be welded. Also got rid of the Origin widebody fenders and went back to stock for $270 shipped.

I've been saving money for a change but here are a few updates.
Intake Manifold side Intercooler Piping is all welded gonna do finalizing of turbo side soon to be welded. Tial BOV Flush Mounted, elbow welded to turbo.

Body Kit almost done being mounted, modifying the fitment as came makes it mount perfect.
Sorry about the crappy image quality my camera broke

Alot of mosquitoes so a little shaky.

Braided Nylon For Oil Breathers, finishing up the turbo side IC piping.

How I do my IC Piping
Step 1: Mark and Cut Piping
Step 2: Prep Fir with Silicon Couplers

Step 3: Mark and Duct Tape for finalizing welds

yeah, but most of it was in the first year like 9g's then this year i've only done like 4g's i think. I find deals like the brand new borg warner s372 for $700 off a friend rebuild th350 transmission for $60 from a different friend, then alot of the other parts are used.
