Love the bracket for the overflow, bout time you finished that :P

Ive got 1 of those distributor blocks in the 180...awesome to hide **** behind the guards...+ splicing wires is messy...
I don't remember any pics or discussion about fittings in earlier posts The only thing it might be is the gearbox fluid temp sensor fitting in the drain bung.

Yeah, not quite enough room to put it in behind the guards and for just little annoying to open up the guards to hook up new items. I will have a chat to you another time about connectors you are using

I need to replace my stock overflow bottle but thought a catch can might be a bit small. and there isnt realy a way of filling it up??

I like ur intake, simple but smart, i never thought of just using straight hard tubing and just silicon bends.
Nope it is an actual coolant overflow can, although I'm not sure if they make that particular style anymore. There are plenty floating around on eBay.

The piping for the intake is stainless steel that have been HPC coated. Yeah, I spent a while nutting out what I wanted to do with the intake and how it would all go together and in the end I am pretty happy. I just need a small bracket to attach the MAF to the gearbox mount (for some extra support) and it will be all done.
