I know it's kind of off topic, but right under where it says how many posts you have, and where you put your vehicle, yours says you have an 89 silver zenki hatch. WTF is an 89 zenki hatch? Is there some sort of hybrid between an 89 hatch and the zenki era?

How many psi is that factory T/B plumbing, now BOV plumbing, going to handle?

Also that oil return line for the turbo looks like it will rub against the motor mount once installed...is that the rubber hose used to ventilate the valve cover? Hope not. People use stainless braided lines for oil return from the turbo for a reason.

the bov is not going there. it's going to go on the cold pipe. as for the il line, well i hop it clears or we'll have some modding to do.

hope you dont run into trouble mocking up all the piping while the engine's out of the car. That manifold is awsome. Pretty rare to see a tubular on a single stick.
