Looking awesome, what happened with the other setup?
Are you going to still be using a factory hood? It looks like the elbow on the throttle body may cause an issue with it sitting pretty high? Very cool example of how to make one of these cars go REALLY fast!
Where are you buying the E&J parts through? Looks like they have some very impressive parts that I wouldn't mind looking at.

Correct on the engine height, I didn’t realize how much higher the 3rd gen intake sits than the 2nd gen intake. So, I’ll need to do something about the hood. I’ll need some sort of hood scoop added. Got any suggestions?
Not too worried about it right now, I don’t have a problem with driving it around town without a hood.
I buy all my E&J parts from www.eastcoastparts.com

Cowl induction, TII, Hemi style scoops, there are a ton of choices.
The cowl will give the car a muscley look, while the TII will hint at the turbo inside.
There is the Caprice scoops, they are wide and flat and should clear the elbow barely.
Some Chrysler scoops:
Late model Subaru:
A few examples.

When people see my 1st gen for the first time, they first thing they say is “I like your FD a lot better, but this is cool too”. That’s kind of disheartening, but whatever…

Thanks for the compliments. I'm pretty happy with what I've achieved by myself
