I'm honestly kinda bummed you've done all this to you're. I've been wanting to do all hard lines... Been wanting to do a five lug swap and run the black street lites... Been wanting a manual rack... Been wanting to do a complete wire tuck... But you beat me to it all!!

LOL. I quit talking about what all I wanted to do to mine and just kept it low key. I was going for the wow factor when i opened the hood. I got a few more things i want to do before it hits the track. I got more major changes for this time next year.

I believe those are just the refrence lines made with hard lines. NRE does their turbo stuff the same way.

Is your charge piping welded to the TB opening or is that some kind of slick clamp I'm not seeing?

I thought about it but decided against it. I don't have any heat issues under the hood.
