Project almost done

I've wanted to replace the stock IC for a while now but it isn't necessarily cheap. So, I thought I might find a non-specific IC and adapt it. Well I found an older model PFS IC that came out of someone elses 7 who was upgrading to a FMIC and so I bought it (Ebay $250 shipped). I figured it would be easy to adapt it and save lots of money. Well like many projects - it got a little more expensive and took more time but now it's almost done! The pictures I've posted show some re-routed air hoses, turbo tubing, new parts and added filters. Not yet done is a custom air duct and braces. I also had to replace the battery and build something to hold it (looks like crap but works great for now). I post finished pics but I think I'm ready for some criticism from you all. In all the project will cost me about $650! But that's less then half of the PFS system now on the market.

Attach one picture to each post. If you have three pictures, you'll need to post three replies to this thread.

After much work and searching for parts (Burns Stainless) I hand cut each part to fit. The problems, getting over the pully wheels and still being able to close the hood! (I also re-used the 90deg. bend that went to the stock IC. This I attached to the Y-pipe and routed forward.)

My crappy looking mini battery holder (not nice like Rotary Extreme) but it cost me $10 instead of $150 and the battery I got at Battery Mart for $95 shipped.
