Mild Tuck/Shave Opinions and Recommendations
**Pictures added of finished running vehicle and link to dyno run**
Almost finished installing my new motor and turbo set up. Figu
red I would post some pictures to get some opinions and insight of how to clean it up. Any positive criticism appreciated.
Thanks!

Honestly? Its already clean. If you want to nitpick, i think nice shiny motor mounts would look good and a strut bar, a resovoir sock, and chrome plate the exhaust compressor on the turbo.
but damn that is clean!
btw where are the hoses for your vc and fpr?

why stock over spoon? 
i would just tidy up all of the hoses and what not in the back, and find a way to sorta hide the oil feed line to the turbo. hide the throttle cable best you can, and get a plug for the a/c thing on the firewall. looks good thought!

Thanks guys! Yeah I need to buy a black FPR, I hate the fact its red.
I was hoping someone had an idea of how to hide the oil feed because I am at a loss for that.
Also I have to run two vacuum lines to the wastegate, any ideas for that?
Besides those two lines I just have to drop in the radiator and it will be good to go.
I hope to get a better intake manifold soon, maybe paint it black?

He could also tuck the oil line lower/more hidden, shorten the throttle cable, and clean up all the long hoses.
I have seen people run the oil feed behind the timing belt. There are two bolt holes there, one on the intake side and one on the exhaust side they use to secure it using these cushion clamps:

Yeah. If you look closely at my first photo I am using those to hold the line around the valve cover. But I'll try to run it inside of the timing belt and see how it looks. Thanks for the ideas!
Right. Mine is like yours now. My line just blew up the other day so when I get a new one made, I am going to route it behind the timing belt also. If you get that done, post some up close pics for us.
