Ya that's what i was thinking of those wires will be a pain but id say under the radiator support and above the air dam would be a good idea? it would hide everything completely.

i ran my wires under the rad support and behind the air dam and didnt have to extend many of the wires but that also might be because i have hids and the balast for them gave me more to play with im not sure about the rest of the wires that go up the fender cause my motor isnt in but it looks like i should be able to make it work with out extending to may of the wires.
i was also wondering with the pumps did you have to buy 2 hot wire kits or were you just using the one to power both pumps

Why are you polishing it? I would wrap the entire hotside at least once.

Ya it looks great but you will want to wrap it since its close to your cold piping.

I like the polished look just see how hot it gets and go from there. You will probably have to wrap it if your going to be driving it on the street often. I see two things on that dp a exhaust temp and what's that other flange for?

Probably for the waste gate to tie back into the exhaust, with a v-band.

Its where the wastegate plumbs back in. Instead of dumping on ground it goes out the dp. The other small one is for wideband for tuning... the side the flange is on faces in and dp exited out passenger side front bumper. So your looking at it flipped around and backward. The smooth pic above where you see no flanges is what you see when opening hood.

Here is a picture showing where the wastegate ties back into the downpipe....Downpipe has been removed and left the wastegate in place..


Here are a few more pictures showing the upper radiator pipe in place without the downpipe or radiator in there where you can see pipe routing better...

Sweet! Its a pretty straight forward install too. Just the fuel pump bucket is the only thing you need to take your time with

was thinking of doing it from the trunk... You know make an access door to fuel pumps like people do but was unsure if i could get to the wiring stuff from the top or at least feed the wires down thru to where i can get from underneath... cause i know they plug in underneath in front of tank.. What you think???

Ya go from the top cut an access panel and all the wiring is right there much easier than dropping the tank. There's a bunch of threads but if you want a picture of it ill take one for you

ill probably cut a much bigger hole than needed cause im all about ease of doing things lol.... yeah take me a pic if its not to much trouble....
Thanks
Oh and on all those wires i may not have to lengthen any of them at my radiator.. Just loosen up a few spots where harness is connected to frame and should be able to have enough play room then..
