Pics Request: Pics of your CUSTOM fmic setup..

Im interested in the different ways peopld run their setup. I want to see the piping routs and BOV positioning. Pics with both NA TB positioning and T2 TB positioning would be cool.
Im trying to decide on a setup for my NA throttle body location, and I think i have a pretty good idea of what I'm going to do, but it'd be nice to see some pictures as well.

Saab I/C

Saab I/C in front of radiator, no problems cooling, Engine died shortly after this was installed (not because of heat) so I don't have a lot of data.

hey is that a saab 9000 ic if so be carfull with the side plastic tanks they crack easy over the years. But on a good note it is a great ic i know alot of people put them on the saab 900t due to the larger volume and better airflow which would put out 1-2psi more than the stock 900 ic. im asking because my first car was a 9000turbo.

that should be enough pics of my car and install thus far. I put it where the stock a/c condenser was and moved the oil cooler forward. i still got some work to do though as you can probably tell by the pics.

on the turbo side the compressor points down(T66), and the piping goes between the sway bar, and the steering rack

on the driver side, it comes up through the factory 2.5" hole, and straight to the TB elbow
