pretty clean install, wish I took more time in cutting out the holes for my IC pipes lol.

Is that a worm clamp I see coming off the compressor housing?... yeah I'd t-bolt that STAT!

Plans for the car since it has kill switches?

This is probably a dumb question, but what is the blue container in the trunk? My guess is some type of a nitrous container.

Its the Moroso battery box. I believe thats still the only battery box pre-approved by the NHRA.

EDIT:: Looking like an awesome start. I recently picked up a 93 coupe to move my 25 to. Its red with the Silvia front as well. I hope I can have as clean of a start as youve built up.

Ahhh! I have my battery mounted in the rear right portion of my trunk, but it's not in a fancy box. Is that dangerous? I didn't really consider the gases before.
