very nice demon you should definitely get some covering for your wires and new vac hoses to clean it up a bit and go with the white and blue theme

cheap
leaves more space for the filter/slave cylinder for the 45min clutch swaps

didn't want to spend a bunch of money on a Greddy elbow just to cut it up


now that you have my reasoning, may i ask why not? Anything i'm unaware of?

probably not enough to be noticable but the shorter pipe work (and less bends, smoother path for air)for response, one of the reasons for going v-mount. but anyways looks good in my books

Here is my engine bay as of today. I am pretty close to done with it (is anyone ever really done??) I spent several hours clay barring/waxing the engine bay..

Was going for clean and functional. Turbo swap is going well, added a Blitz intake, BOV with open atmosphere dump, home made intake tubing, cast BOV charge pipe and a few other little things in the engine bay like dual alternator pulley, and black coated manifolds..

Putting FD UIM on so IC piping needed to be modified. Got rid of some couplers replaced with a wiggins clamp. Didnt put any on the turbo side because most likely I will be swapping out the turbo and dont want to invest anymore money into it

Have to polish up the elbow, pipes and paint and do my thing on the UIM and the throttle body, should make for a nice change
