        Looks great!


        However, let me advise you against that cheap-o catch can. I had one. Somehow it got clogged up (when only half full) and caused me 3 months of headaches trying to track down why my new turbo was blowing a shitload of oil out of the seals. It's really a piece of shit.

        So anyway, just be aware. If you do decide to use it, at least drain it on a very regular basis.

                            Be really careful with that catch can... its a piece of shit and has REALLY small inlets/outlets. I drilled a giant hole in the side of it for an inlet and enlarged both the top nipples for outles. It still doesn't work 100%

                            .... I guess I got beat out... oops

                              not really. because my friend has just a turbo on his car and he beefed up the motor a little and he's got 350 with a turbo. and only a turbo.
