Ahh it looks so good. Perfect.
In the bay the Mugen intake looks a little out of place, you could put the stock intake on with a Spoon filter if you wanted to.

I don't want to use the newer style paper filter so I've been looking for a Spoon Gen 1 filter.
Although I'm not sure how much I would like converting back to a stock intake lol.

To make this update short because I don't feel like typing.
Went to the Eibach Meet last weekend, had sick *** ITR line up
Found another pair of RegaMaster's to complete my 16" set
Installed my Mugen Intake, ITR Valve Cover, ITR Oil Cap & misc parts on my GSR

Breathers remove the source of positive ventilation that repressurizes the POSTIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION (PCV) valve.
There is less pressure in the crank when you add a breather at the valve cover. The consequence of this is you get more positive blow-by from the combustion chamber past the piston rings and into the crankcase. More blow-by means less cylinder pressure...less cylinder pressure means the burn is slower and less complete...the result is more emissions and less power.
If you want to do this right and remove oil vapor from the circulating crankcase before it goes into the intake valve then, get an oilcatch can and put a breather on the catch can. Then place the catch can in between the valve cover breather and the PCV valve.
Disconnecting the breather tube, which blows fresh intake air into the valve cover, and placing a breather on the valve cover just creates more blow-by and emissions. Eventually you have so much blow-by, you lose power.

Couple shots of my car my friend Fredo took at Eibach.
