RX SE7EN is on a distinguished road
Worked all weekend again, Deals Gap is coming way to quickly. Still don't know if it'll even work.

I'll let the pics do the talking:

In with the new, out with the old


Resprayed manifold (also re-wrapped and sprayed the downpipe):



New turbo oil feed, this sits under the supercharger bracket, and the old hardline was touching the bottom of the mounting plate. So now it's braided -4 AN (black nylon) and won't rub on anything:



Since the back of the supercharger partly under the TB, I had to make a new oil fill neck. This will have a -10 AN bung welded to it and a short black nylon braided line will be routed to the rear of the UIM and will be the oil fill point:




Unfortunately, the supercharger air inlet pipe still hits that new oil fill neck, so i had to modify the pipe. I've since modified this 2 more times, and it's going to need a little more persuasion before it will actually bolt down nicely. The oil fill neck and rear of the supercharger are just so close



Hopefully I can get this piece fitting correctly. I finished relocating the fuse boxes and tieding up the wiring this weekend. I also finished replacing the old oil hardline (from oil filter pedastal to driver side oil cooler) to -10 AN braided line. The hard pipe would have rubbed on the supercharger bracket. Then I can finish off the final pipes and see if it starts.

Tonight I should be able to put the bumper and lights back on (not fixed though). And I'll also have my new 90mm bi-xenon D2S projectors up and running, finally I'll be able to see at night.
