[QUOTE="2slo95fiveoh, post: 1130841, member: 8966"] Whew... I didn't realize how long it has been since I posted on this thread until I saw the date (almost two months ago!), and the fact that my build thread was moved all the way back to the 4th page. Ha. But, I did get a LOT of work done on it, and the several pictures included will show it. First off, I got my blower inlet pipe made, fitted, painted and installed. I wanted something that flowed near the same as the Power Pipes, but without the cost of one. Another thing that bothers me on the Power Pipe setups is the way the hose routing is for the bypass valve. I think it looks kind of out of place, and it sticks out like a sore thumb to me. So I designed my own, and a buddy of mine that works at an exhaust shop bent and welded one up for me out of 3.5" diameter steel.

When I go to the track I will probably remove the pass. side turn signal and headlight for a little increased airflow: [IMG]http://i444.photobucket.com/albums/qq163/Mustang1619/Mobile%20Uploads/20130314_150927_zps3237328f.jpg[/IMG] I also finished cutting, bending, and flaring my new brake lines. I built new lines for: Prop Valve-to-Line Lock (fronts) Prop Valve-to-Rear brake junction (on RF side of car) Line Lock-to-LF caliper hose Line Lock-to-RF caliper hose Line Lock installed (I still need to do the wiring) [IMG]http://i444.photobucket.com/albums/qq163/Mustang1619/Mobile%20Uploads/20130314_152517_zpsb2a8b4e2.jpg[/IMG] RF and Rear junction brake lines running in factory location: [IMG]http://i444.photobucket.com/albums/qq163/Mustang1619/Mobile%20Uploads/20130314_152532_zps1483e882.jpg[/IMG] Where I started today: (Needed to finish the wiring for my HIDs (Headlights and foglights), attach a few loose ground wires, connect the airbag sensors, attach hood latch and cable) [IMG]http://i444.photobucket.com/albums/qq163/Mustang1619/Mobile%20Uploads/20130314_145407_zpsc5af538c.jpg[/IMG] A quick engine shot: [IMG]http://i444.photobucket.com/albums/qq163/Mustang1619/Mobile%20Uploads/20130314_145416_zps0282c46b.jpg[/IMG] Overall shot of the car: (After I was done working for the day I cleaned and organized the garage, it was getting a bit messy.
