I just need to know which line have to go where. I was told that I need a check valve or something else.
Budget change!! What clutch other than the a twin plate will hold 700hp?

Manifolds with a little heat treated coating. I plan on picking up some ceramic coated ones sometime this year. This will have to do for now. The picture of the wastegate dump tub is hard to see but it is a very tight fit.

I have been very bored. I just put all of the intake system back together this afternoon and man does it look GREAT!!!
I have Chris working on moving the neck on the radiator rite now. Then after I get that back I can put the rest together.
nrattV7 Do you have a black FD with aftermarket wheels? If so I saw you on the intersate last summer. Stix is has a black R1 which I hang out with a lot in the summer.

Depending on how stripped down your setup is, you really don't need much.
run the vacuum lines from the oil metering injectors to either the compressor housing inlet or the air filter, along with one of the lines from the oil filler neck. I can show you pics of both options, just have to dig them up.
bov gets a boost source, as does the FPR.
Then just hook up the wg and boost controller as per the supplied directions, and you're good to go
Re: a clutch, if you have the funds I've been pretty impressed with the Exedy twin disc.....If you want a less expensive route you can go with either a spec or act sprung 6 puck. I run the spec, they offer a lightened pressure plate option as well.

Looks great! I thought about getting my manifolds done in black but opted with the polished look. I really like them in black though. Looks sharp. If you painted the irons it would look perfect.
You can use stainless lines with AN fittings. I have a 2nd gen oil cooler w/ mazdatrix AN adapters. You might be able to run to the local hydraulic shop though and pick up a set for cheaper. I had the hydraulic shop make up some for me. Kind of spend and if I had to do it again I would run with Stainless line. You can also get a couple shields that slip around the line if you are concerned about rubbing.
I really like the placement of the WG, do you think that there will be any adverse effects with it being so close to the DP?
Finally, Nice SE.

on a side note i'd recommend pulling out the vacuum brass inserts from the manifold your not using then drilling and tapping with allen set screws.
I did that and really love it. I played the vacuum cap game and hoses with screws look ugly. The ones on the side of the lim do nothing so they can also be removed for cosmetic reasons if you wish as they are just pass-thru.
Looks like it's finally comming together.
