Chill buddy. You're not funny being rude like that. Those aren't really teaser pics either. He just didn't post a whole crap load of them.

I wonder if those new crappy turbo manis hold boost better than the old ones. I hope so, I hope you got a name brand wastegate also or you'll be running into problems. Even with a tial my old mani wouldnt hold but 12psi with a 5 pound spring. Without the tial it would barely hold 18psi. Good luck, Looks GOOD!!

Shorten that regulator feed line. With the 90 up in the air like that it could cause issues with the hood and possibly a pinch in the line. Get a 45 and make a straight line with a little slack and your golden.

I'm not feeling the different color engine bay, but it's definitely waaaay cleaner than mine is.
