engine looks great... and thats one high mileage ITR.

There are to many oily finger prints all over your toda header. If I were you I would take it off, sand it down with 2000 grit sand paper and repolish it (use gloves the whole time, even during install.) that way your header will stay gold after it heats up and wont get any oil marks on it

hella hella clean ; except for the fingerprinted header and the dirty battery, but not bad at all for 88k or 141km's

Mugen does not make a carbon intake for the integra. They are all fiberglass

My oil catch can work fine, but i install it 2 month ago, it's for that the hoses are clean, but day after day they come brown !
For the Mugen Intake, a friend who work at Carbone Lorraine (carbon industrie) tell me it 's really Carbon, but not in tissue, i don't know how to explain, it like fiberglass but the fiber is in carbon, it's carbone with gelcoat stratified.

After a while the intake hose to the catch can should be brown and the outlet hose should be clean, then it's working....

What is the blue intake hose connected to the mugen intake?

You mounted your oil catch can too shallow...meaning if you don't keep that sucker empty, the collected oil will splash out of the can into the hose. To fix that, either keep an eye out and empty that sucka frequently or mount that can vertically.
