Quick update on clean air side connection I forgot to add.

Congrats! A "built" car is much better than a "bolt-on" one. And you've got the ability to make a "V2" if so inclined.

True, the V2 I have been thinking about with poly tubes but so far the IAT's stay so cool I don't think the heat on pipe matters much, about to test the Heat reflection tape on pipes next to see the difference.

Nice work man, I have honestly never seen anyone do something like this and make it look good. haha

Thanks Man!, Yeah It now has Ricer Gold Heat tape on it. Been testing different insulation techniques and so far almost not worth the change or time only a few degrees. Air moves too fast to absorb heat.

I've always wondered if this was actually the case - never understood how much heat the air could soak up if moving that fast. Makes me wonder.....
