Went Single
I finally did my single conversion. I had a remain engine upgraded, new hurley seals, oil and coolant ports enlarged, and intake and exhaust upgraded. I added all SS lines, FPR, reloated fuel filter to engine K&N billet, Used a whole lot of earles fittings, upgraded all coolant and oil lines to SS, Coolant lines are goodyear with SS mesh overlay, new fittings on the ends of all SS fittings, an XS T04s kit, bored out 1300's, and powder coated alot of stuff almost chrome.

ahh, still in break in period. I have a feeeling come 500 miles you'll love it 
. Also if you havn't already done so, I would put a KN filter on the turbo. If you want, PM me and I'll give you the part number for the one I use, it fits perfectly

A note on that Apexi blow off valve...
Every few weeks or months, it will stop opening right and your car will sound funny on shifts. The solution is to take it apart and clean the shaft in the middle and then put a tiny film of clean oil on it.
In another few months, you will have to do it again, but it doesn't take more than 10 min anyhow.

very clean installation, I like it a lot. The only thing I could suggest to you is for you to make that intercooler piping straight from the turbo instead of curved.

ok, here is a pic from a week ago. some more has been done since then, but i can not go any further as i m waiting on some parts. 
i will have gt35/40, haltech e6k, greddy 3-row(waiting for) and 1600 and 720's. aeromotive A1000 pump...some other things to go along with this monstrosity.
the car starts, but i can not drive yet. trany was still outfor one, and it is obvious why it can not drive yet. :P

Thanks for all the compliments. Both Shawnk and I worked very hard to create the monster.
I was originally going to go with Haltech until I saw what a Datalogit can do with a PFC. That changed my mind.
I used 6an lines vs the 10. I you use 10 you will need to buy enought line for all the routing and to replace all the aluminum runners. 10 an is to big for the runners. By the way 10an will require a 1 inch open faced wrench.
I have 10 an oil coolers. A crooked willow upgrade.
The powder coating I did myself. It is very easy I bought it from the Eastwood company, 149.
If anyone have any questions let me know I would be happy to answer. By the way it took two people 2 months to recreate everything.
