Steering rack loop, I used 45° -6 AN push lock fittings. The rack uses 12x1.5 and 16x1.5 fittings to -6.

For the heat core line/hose that runs to the front of the engine, all I did is flip everything up side down the hard line and hose. I use aluminum spacers and mounted the hard line.

the belt for your water pumps seems to be on the wrong side; causing it to spin the wrong way.

Other than that, this is really clean. I like how you simplified a lot of stuff the crowds the engine bay.

Looks good man! Looks like an MR2 intercooler, I like the design of the endtanks which should use the entire intercooler core and smooth transitions.

What size endtank diameter hole is the intercooler? What size turbo outlet diameter?

I know the greddy elbow is 2.75" diameter.

Think about keeping it smaller on the hot side and expanding it larger on the colder side of the intercooler.

Great work with the ducting but that lower panel should have been made to go behind the front cover not over it, it would flow better and look 10x better too.

car is looking good man. I continue to work on mine and come up with better ideas for ducting as I try my ideas. I think I finally settled on an idea of how to make it all work with the space I have. gotta try it out first.

We tuned the car last friday and the car rips now. Very smooth driveability in the lower cells and rips up top. We took the car up to 17-18PSI on pump gas at alititude. Running the car around 14-15PSI. Car is fast and spools pretty damn good.
