Nice build so far, loving it. Nice work on the downpipe & screamer pipe. Out of interest, how far does your downpipe hang in relation to the bottom of your car. I too have a 3" downpipe on mine and clearance is gonna be an issue, I was thinking of adding a reinforcement plate to the brace that ties the too subframes/crossmembers together. But now I have the Innovative traction bar in my sights through the group buy, I'm back to scratching my head for a solution.
he man, yeah was thinking about the same..
when creating this I kept clearance between my downpipe and oilpan to a minimum. and the lowest point is still the Ultra racing underbrace. will post a good picture when its done but still a tight 3" will fit.
About the Innovative traction bar.. I think its the best one when it comes to the space you will have for the header/downpipe. but still doubt the rods. I just don't see how I can adjust them. Hope it will work out ok.

Can't wait to get the traction bar (& mounts) - get yours fitted and I'll see if there's any problems first!

Re: GB-lude project, pic heavy
Still haven't got my downpipe back.. but will make a picture when I do.
Did do some work today:
connected the injector clips.

Removed the injector resistor plug and connected all5 wires together, fitted my intake with thermal gasket.
Connected the AN fittings to the fuel line and connected the filter/guage with the fuelrail.

Made a bracket to fit the Trickflow fuel filter and pressure guage.


Connected the AN fittings to the fuel line and connected the filter/guage with the fuelrail.

Next time i will get the feed and returnline done. so fuel system almost sorted!

Re: GB-lude project, pic heavy
small update..
I installed the fuellines and breather lines.. shame my fuelpressure regulator was in the way, one of the breather lines had to be rerouted and the tidy setup I had before is gone..
BEFORE:

AFTER


Also the innovate altenator bracket I had is no longer needed.. but still the altenator is in the way of my compressor inlet and a normal (cold) intake is not possible.
I thought about this long and hard.. don't want a fine mesh only filter so bought myself a mushroom filter and started mending it to fit around the altenator.
The second layer of metal mesh is still behind the foam so it will not suck the foam into the turbo.
I think this is the only way to fit a filter onto this setup and don't think it will affect the flow much..


what u all think?
