your updated pics look great, i just wanted to let you know one thing about the hoses that go from the front of the rails to the regulator. you have them correctly installed, but if you feel like, there is a convenient spot to tuck them in.
they will tuck right in under neath the valvecover mounting flange, resting on the cylinder header. its somewhat hard to explain but they fit right in there and it will get them somewhat concealed and out of the way

its a terrible pic already but notice how here you can hardly even see those 2 hoses because they are tucked in there... http://www.cj-motorsports.com/img/catdes1pic9.jpg
what it ends up doing is putting all the slack in those hoses in the back behind the engine, where you can have the slack swing downwards then right back up to the regulator T.

hey guys here is completed engine bay shot. sorry for the shitty camera phone quaility. Also as a little update i will be installing my carbonetics triple disc clutch, snow performance meth kit and a new set of sparkplugs this weekend then i will be set for my tune. The utec will be replaced with a haltech (debated over the f-con but haltech won) and a hks evc boost controller will replace the turboxs unit. I will post numbers as soon as i get them but i will max out these turbos 20-22psi, so im hoping for 650 rwhp or so

I really didnt find it that difficult. I mean I have been working on cars for along time but as long as you have some common knowledge of a turbo system and take your time you should be fine. Since your local I would be more then willing to lend a hand if you decided to go down that road. I know the motor so well by now. The biggest things is controlling heat for durability (heat wrap, fire sleeve, ceramic coating, ect.)
