Post your single turbo engine bay shots

My wife and I have recently purchased a 93 rx7 as a new project that we will be going single turbo. I have searched for engine bay threads dedicated to sic single turbo bays and I have come up empty handed. Just thought having a dedicated thread would be nice.

I will start. **this is NOT my car. the owner was driving from cali to florida after a poker tourney and stopped for gas in nebraska and allowed me to get a couple shots**

There is a stickied thread called post your single turbo setup. Plenty of single turbo engine bay shots there.

My RHD GT35 car, not finished yet. More bits need painting and new custom pulleys to fit. Need to tuck the hoses and wiring, and a few other bits.
