Tonight I worked on the oil return pump and lining up all the turbo intake plumbing. Pics do not make a lot of sense everything is so tight. It does fit nice though.

I fabricated up some brackets for the air filters out of some flat stock bar aluminum, i got from HomeDepot. I had some extra 3" silicone hose, I cut some for some cushion betwen the pipe and the Al. flat bar.
It holds the filters great and looks good too.

All the plumbing in now 100%. The blow off flanges worked well. Hacked the front Al. bumper apart, I cut off the tow point so my Pasport lazer shifter would fit.
All that is left to do is, relay for the oil pump, pass. side exhaust, switches for line locks and mount up the HKS boost controler some place on the dash.
