Use photo bucket... its free and much easier. Just copy and past the image code they give you next to each photo.

Remme that looks awesome. We'll be boosting soon brother!

I got a question for you, what size oil lines are you running to and from the turbo? I need to buy them, perhaps someone here could share a good link?

I bought an-4 braided line for into the turbo and an-10 for out of the turbo, just cause I wanted the oil to run as smoothly out of the turbo as possible. I may be wrong, it may be too big, but at this point, this **** is all trial and error.

-10 as return and -*4 as a feed is perfect. That’s what I’m running.

Yeah I got the oil lines but no fittings, I didn't want to get them until I knew the exact location of the pump so that I know exactly what angles I need. I'll do that today
