Well it depends how you define expensive. For instance, slamming into the back of a utility truck would be expensive. A new set of ubolts however, not so much.

Just finished this guy, about to test it here in a bit. The coil hangs down into the air flow to hopefully get rid of most of the heat...

What is it???

I Hope that plastic line is secure... You wouldn't want it rubbing on the Drive shaft or the yoke.

Drive pressure gauge. That is more than enough copper tubing to dissipate the heat, diesel guys use half that and have no problems.

Yea its secured, I just took this pic so you can see everything.

I think its 4ft of line, all that was in the kit, figured may as well use it all.

Curious to see what you drive pressure is compared to boost. I would think you have more than enough copper there to dissipate heat.
