PSC unit is for the power steering, its not installed yet. I had it in place to make sure it was going to clear everything & be able to have the can higher than the pump & have the hood close lol. I needed to make sure everything is running good before I install the new pump, it requires a pretty elaborate break in. That will hopefully be sometime in the next week or two.

Didn't know about it, but now haven seen & gotten my hands on the PSC system I'm happy I went with it, has great reviews & is a very quality assembly. Not that the Turn One isn't but I have been fighting power steering issues with this car since almost day one so I may have gone a little overboard but well worth it! Plus its very similar to the one my dad & I have been using in the open wheel car for 10+ years with no issues.

McNord what material did you use for your breather setup? Do you need a break to bend the stuff? I'm looking to fab up something simple to feed air from the opening in the front bumper to my tb. Like a smaller version of what you have then a tube connecting the tb directly to the fabbed airbox.

I'm not a bog fan of that project but I sure can respect the time and craftsmanship needed. Wouldn't it have looked smoother to have that top piece of sheet go up to those top mounting points then straight across to the radiator support? The way you have it seems like there will be a gap under this top inside of the bumper. It's nice to see that Burkhart piece tho. What's the weight difference between that and the factory pieces?
