I think the best thing about using PVC piping is if you want to later you can take it all off as one peice and maybe have a shop make some steel tubes.
Dont worry I think it looks alright. thumb: |

I think it will work fine for now.
As for the engine bay not being pretty enough, right now it is a matter of getting it all together, working out bugs, where everything is going to be mounted, getting a decent tune on it, then the motor is coming back out when he takes the car for paint and body anyways... was his plan. |
oh thats fine plus if he springs a leak with the plumbing in his house he should have stuff left over to fix that toofirejump:

Well After working on the car all day yesterday I've got the wiring moved to safer locations....looks like it was done by a blind monkey, but it's functional and for now that's all i care about. I also moved the FMU from the firewall to the underside of the frame rail behind the sway bar mount. I don't like it there, but at least it'll be legal for the track.

Thought I'd post a couple more pics.
Here's some messy wiring..still need to find a place for the coil http://photo.ringo.com/187/187208182O519512559.jpg More messy wiring http://photo.ringo.com/187/187208188O494128516.jpg New FMU location http://photo.ringo.com/187/187208194O306257252.jpg and another pic of the IC piping, off the car http://photo.ringo.com/187/187208226O664854703.jpg |
You can put the coil on the other side of the strut tower and just run your wiring inside the fender. Good luck thumb:

Well, I loosely mounted my upper (I only have two bolts for the centre...still need studs for the corners) so I could finish the oulet half of my cold side. Well the EGR spacer puts the TB much closer to the fender than I expected. The way it sits I'm going to have to add so many 90* bends to make it work it's pathetic. I've put all my parts, gonna cover the car and forget about it for a while...I'm fed up with the build and all the little things that keep cropping up right now.
Anyway, here's a pic so you didn't come back for nothing.... http://photo.ringo.com/190/190150300O552493024.jpg |
