Overall I really like how the On3 kit mocked up with even a S400 Chassis turbo, Hood just BARLEY doesn't clear to the point where it won't take much at all the hood pin hole is about 3/4 exposed so talking 1/8th of an inch and were in there. All I plan on doing is either getting a extension type deal so I can use a coupler or may just have that one cold side pipe modded to bolt on with the V-band.

But did find this



The Previous owner of this car just leaves me with surprise after surprise. Looks like he didn't want to swap a set of 50 dollar heads and decided to just JB weld off his failed attempt at getting an exhaust bolt out

Think I'm going to either 90 it before the Strut tower or go out straight and wrap around the strut tower on the back side

Likely before

I have my turbo (S480) in a similar location as yours, and I sleeved the strut tower and ran 5" as far as I could off the turbo.

Here's the pump set up with the Y and everything mocked up, Question is on filters pre pump I have 2 outlets on my cell so the way I'm going to do it is feed both pumps with their own feed from the cell, I plan on running the diesel type fuel filter post pumps but was curious as to what you guys would run pre pumps with these AEM 380's that isn't going to be restrictive

Run an aftermarket 100 micron inline filter on each inlet of the pump.

Or use another one of those Y fittings and a single large 100 micron fuel filter.

Only thing about these Y's is the take up a lot of space and would have to go down from a -10 inlet on each pump to a -8 inlet as these Y's aren't made for a dual 10's inlets to single 10 outlet.

I was planning to do the spin-on tractor filter as well until I came across this one.

Wix 24003
7 micron element
12 GPM
Ethanol friendly

Look it up

Nice find! Be awesome for post pumps, a lot sleeker and can just run it down the side of the car without having to find some sort of special spot for it !

XRP makes this but it's for the 044 and with the check valves already (If they ever become a restriction they will be removed) I see this as maybe being a restriction if they made them in the -10AN threads
