I have to admit that when i first seen your pics (of parts) i cringed a little...I personaly hate purple...but after seeing it all togather im seriously digging it. the black rap and carbon really meshes awsome with that shade of purple. Im being serious here, im drooling! this engine bay makes my top ten list!

Thanks folks, I appriciate it. Got the intake pipe (cold side of the turbo) to fit, didnt think it would because it was made for the 16g, so I now have to send that off to the powder coater as well... also fixes the dangerous issue of running open turbo. lol

it's true the heatwrap doesnt let the metal expand causing it to exert pressure on the weakspots sometimes resulting in cracking.
