Helluva nice job! I recently did my first direct port system, it's satisfying doing it yourself isn't it!

I plan on a 300hp shot using the direct port and will always have something a little extra with the nozzles mounted in the ring up front. Its mostly a kit I pieced together from stuff I had laying around. The nozzles came from Dave's along with the distribution blocks and the electronics.

Thanks! Very satisfying, I pretty much built and installed everything on the car made sense to do the direct port also.

I have to say I'm not usually impressed with "my first direct port threads", but that looks great! Nice attention to detail and quality of work.
Good job!
