Default STS Front mount pics, Anybody have any????

I really want to get started on my FMIC, but I can't afford a sts fmic, but I want to run the piping the same way (with out e-fans)
So could some-one post some pics of there set-up that shows all the pipeing from the bov to the throttle body. I know it's a tall order, but I'd do it for you. lol

TIM Z you got a P.M.
8ALTNG, thanks, If you would I need some showing how STS gets the pipe from the bov to the throtle body. mostly before the cooler.
kbracing96, I've got all those pics saved, You did that FMIC yourself right? It looks great, I'd like to run the piping after the cooler like you did, instead of back to the passanger side. But I'd like a few more shots of the pipeing before it goes to the cooler.
Thanks again!!!

That's a cheapy Bosch bypass valve off a Volvo I'm using as a blow off (was a buck on ebay). It's open any time there is vacuum, so I put that filter on it so no dirt is sucked in when it is open.

Also, I keeped the pipe size at 2 1/2" all the way to the intercooler to keep air velocity up and minimize volume in the piping and all so, so I would have less pressure drop across the intercooler and then ran 3" from the cooler to the TB.

Its really close, and might rub the insalation a tiny bit, but it fits OK.
